Our people continue to stand firm and resist in the face of Zionist plans aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause – Com Maher Al-Taher
During an interview on Al Jazeera Mubasher and Al Mayadeen, Dr. Maher Al-Taher, the Polit Bureau Member and the official in charge of international relations at the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), said: “The prisoner exchange deal, in its first phase, includes the release of a number of our comrades in the occupation prisons, including our women PB comrade Khalida Jarrar and the fighter Abla Saadat, the life partner of our Party General Secretary comrade Ahmed Saadat. The list also includes a number of male and female prisoners of the Popular Front.”
He said: “We congratulate our steadfast prisoners in the occupation prisons from all factions who have written the most wonderful types of steadfastness and defiance of the Zionist enemy.”
He added that reaching the signing of the exchange deal and the ceasefire would not have been possible without the legendary steadfastness recorded by our people in the Gaza Strip for 15 continuous months, in the face of a war of extermination in full view of the entire world. Al-Taher stressed that the main challenge we face today is the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, treating the wounded, bringing in aid, and addressing all the effects and consequences of the barbaric aggression on our beloved Strip and on our Palestinian land.
Al-Taher also stressed that our people will continue to stand firm and resist in the face of the Zionist plans aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause, stressing that our people will continue the struggle until they regain their full national rights.
The great national leader, Daoud Maragha, also mourned “Abu Ahmed Fouad,” saying: “With hearts filled with sadness and pain, we bid farewell to the great Palestinian leader Abu Ahmed Fouad, former Deputy Secretary-General of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, who spent six consecutive decades, until the last moment of his life, serving the cause of his people and nation, believing in the option of resistance as a strategic option in confronting the Zionist enemy. This leader remained committed on his principles like someone holding onto hot coals, neither compromising nor giving in, believing in continuing the struggle until every inch of Palestinian soil is liberated.
