AhlulBayt News Agency: The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, affirmed its readiness to cooperate with any initiative aimed at confronting attempts to displace “our people from the Gaza Strip and reconstruct the enclave without compromising Palestinian rights, especially our people’s unwavering right to resist occupation, achieve a just solution to our Palestinian cause that guarantees the right to self-determination, establish a fully sovereign Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital, and facilitate the return of refugees to their cities and villages from which they were displaced since the Nakba.”
Mohammed Darwish, head of the Hamas leadership council, reiterated in a message sent to the Arab summit and Arab leaders on Saturday the Movement’s commitment to completing the remaining phases of the ceasefire agreement, leading to a comprehensive and permanent ceasefire, the full withdrawal of occupying forces from the Gaza Strip, reconstruction, and lifting the siege.
From the perspective of Hamas’s commitment to national unity, Darwish reaffirmed in his message to the summit the Movement’s steadfast position that the day after the war should be purely Palestinian, based on national consensus and support from Arab brothers.
He pointed out that Hamas has shown complete readiness to engage with any option agreed upon by Palestinians, whether it involves forming a national unity government of expert technocrats and Palestinian professional figures, or establishing the community support committee proposed by our brothers in the Arab Republic of Egypt to manage the affairs of the Gaza Strip according to the applicable laws in the Palestinian territories.
Darwish emphasized Hamas’s absolute rejection of any attempts to impose non-Palestinian projects or forms of administration, or the presence of any foreign forces on the lands of the Gaza Strip.
He confirmed Hamas’s commitment to rearranging the Palestine Liberation Organization, on the basis of full partnership to make it a true representative of all Palestinians, conducting general elections at various national levels, restoring democratic life, and “enabling our people to freely choose their leadership and determine our political options and future.”
Darwish expressed the Movement’s high appreciation for the unified Arab stance rejecting the project to displace the Palestinian people, particularly the positions of both the Arab Republic of Egypt and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
He said that this oppressive project and other projects aimed at displacing the Palestinian people, annexing the West Bank, and enhancing settlement and control over Al-Aqsa Mosque are crimes that target not only the Palestinian people but are also crimes against humanity.
He added that at the top of the priorities to confront this project is “to provide relief to our afflicted people and work by all means to compel the occupation to adhere to the ceasefire agreement in all its terms and phases and to implement the humanitarian protocol.”
The head of Hamas’s leadership council called upon “all our Arab countries to actively participate in the reconstruction and building of the Gaza Strip, as it is the most important step to strengthen our people’s resilience and ensure their steadfastness in their homeland, preventing the implementation of any occupation schemes for displacement or any plans to empty Palestinian land and enable the occupation to control it.”
