Gaza’s brave battle against Israel nearing a bright end: Hamas Haniyeh

The leader of the Hamas resistance movement says the Palestinians' brave battle with the Israeli regime is approaching a bright end thanks to the heroic resistance of fighters and the nation.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The leader of the Hamas resistance movement says the Palestinians' brave battle with the Israeli regime is approaching a bright end thanks to the heroic resistance of fighters and the nation.

Speaking in a televised speech, Ismail Haniyeh said on Wednesday that they’re certain the Israeli aggression will end and the resistance will remain faithful to the Palestinian people and their legitimate aspirations and will continue to guard Gaza.

He said Palestinian fighters are steadfast on the ground and are inflicting heavy losses on Israeli soldiers, including recent heroic attacks in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood in Gaza City, the Jabalia camp, and others.

He further hailed the October 7 operation by Hamas as a success, saying it dealt a heavy blow to the occupying Israel and shook the regime’s military and political command.

The Israeli regime has targeted Palestinians not only inside Gaza but everywhere in the West Bank, Al-Quds, and even inside the 1948-occupied territories, and practiced the worst forms of racism against them.

In his remarks, Haniyeh said Hamas is open to any initiative to help stop Israeli aggression and to restore the rights of the Palestinian people to form an independent state.

He said they’re also open to ending political divisions in Gaza and the West Bank to ensure there is a path that guarantees Palestinian people their rights and a future state.

Haniyeh said any arrangements for Gaza after the war that does not include Hamas as well as other Palestinian factions is an ‘illusion’.

Haniyeh called on Arab and Muslim nations to expand the scope of anti-Israel rallies and other forms of protests in Gaza at a level proportionate to the scale of Israeli atrocities.

He called on the Arab and Muslim governments to show their firm support for Palestinians and to use all means at their disposal to bring the Israeli onslaught to a halt.

Haniyeh appreciated the efforts by the secretary-general of the United Nations, especially his recent letter to the Security Council declaring the situation in the Palestinian territories as a threat to international peace and security.

He also welcomed a UN General Assembly resolution ratified on Tuesday, which demanded an end to the Israeli onslaught on Gaza.
