RNA - Local sources said that massive marches set off from the northern cities of the Strip, while thousands rallied in Khan Younis and Rafah to the south of Gaza amid the participation of senior leaders in the Islamic group and a number of Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) members.

 

The participants raised Palestinian flags and chanted slogans in support of Jerusalem Intifada, the sources added.

Israel has no future on our land, he underlined, stressing the importance of the resistance option to restore Palestinian rights.

 

In Khan Younis, member of Hamas’s political bureau Khalil al-Haya stressed his group’s strong adherence to Palestinian national constants.

 

"We strongly believe that the land of Palestine in its entirety—from the river to the sea—is an Arab Islamic land", he underlined.

 

Hamas is an Islamic national movement that works for the liberation of Palestine, al-Haya affirmed.

 

He underlined that his group is making great efforts for the liberation of all Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails.

 

A similar event was organized in central Gaza Strip after Friday prayers amid the participation of the PLC member Mushir al-Masri.

 

"As we mark Hamas’s 28th anniversary, we renew its adherence to resistance path till the liberation of all Palestinian lands", MP al-Masri said.

 

Along the same line, thousands marched in Rafah, to the south of the Strip, in support of the Jerusalem Intifada and to mark Hamas’s 28th inception anniversary.
