– Our people thwarted the stated and hidden goals of the occupation (ed. by Israel). In a televised speech quoted by German agency DPA, Al-Hajja said that today we are proving that occupation can never defeat our country and its resistance.
As he announced, the Palestinian terrorist organization that controls the Gaza Strip will never forgive or forget the 15-month war. At the same time, al-Hajjah spoke positively about the Hamas attack in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, which killed around 1,200 people and abducted 251 to the Gaza Strip.
Gaza Strip. Hamas is under ceasefire. “Israel’s failure”
The man called the October massacre a “military achievement” and “a source of pride for our country,” according to a New York Times translation. Al-Hajjah also praised Iranian-backed groups (Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Yemen’s Houthi rebels) for carrying out rocket attacks on Israel.
As he announced, Hamas will continue its efforts to destroy Israel. – Our enemies will never see our moments of weakness – he emphasized.
Please remember. The Gaza Strip ceasefire agreement is scheduled to come into force on January 19th. The first Israeli hostages are scheduled to be released that day. Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s office announced Wednesday night in Doha, Qatar, that they were still finalizing the final details of the agreement.
According to the Times of Israel, the agreement includes an initial six-week cease-fire phase, a phased withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Gaza Strip, and an exchange for Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons. This includes the release of hostages taken by Hamas. .
Once implementation of the agreement begins, Hamas is expected to gradually release 33 Israeli hostages during the first 42 days of the ceasefire. The first three hostages should be released on the first day of the ceasefire, and the next four on the seventh day.
Thereafter, three hostages will be released every seven days, with the final 14 to be released in the final week of the first phase. The remaining 65 hostages are expected to be released if both sides agree to a second phase of the ceasefire. Negotiations on this matter are expected to begin approximately two weeks after the cessation of hostilities.
The war in Gaza has killed more than 46,700 people and injured more than 110,200, according to calculations by the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry.
