Sheikh Ra'ed Salah, head of the Islamic Movement in the 1948 occupied lands, said the besieged Gaza Strip, despite its great suffering from blockade and destruction, achieved a victory against the occupation.
"Gaza has forced the Zionist media and senior leaders of the army and government to concede defeat and failure to achieve the war objectives," Sheikh Salah stated in a sit-in held in solidarity with Gaza.
He called for ending the siege on Gaza and opening its crossings, seaport and airport, and providing it with its water needs, affirming such demands are the minimum rights of the Palestinian people.
"These demands have been written by the blood of the martyrs, which tells the whole world either we live in Gaza happily or get buried as martyrs," the Palestinian Islamic figure underlined.
He hailed the victory achieved by the resistance in Gaza as a big triumph for all free peoples of the world, and slammed the weak Arab role during Israel's war on Gaza.
