RNA - "There is no way but resistance against the aggressive enemy. Our enemy is despicable and targets civilians," Qadoumi said, addressing a gathering in Tehran on Sunday.

He reminded Israeli killing of an 8-month-old infant and a 21-year-old girl in the past few days, and said, "Israel should respond to this question why and for which sin it has targeted and martyred them."

According to Fars News Agancy, Qadoumi also referred to Washington's support for Israel and its decision to relocate the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem al-Quds, and said Trump has insolently made this decision by ignoring the fact that 1.25 billion Muslims consider al-Aqsa mosque as their first Qiblah.

On Saturday, Palestinians mourned the funeral of 21-year-old Rawan al-Najjar, carrying her body with on top her medic vest soaked in blood, in the city of Khan Yunis, Gaza Strip.

Razan al-Najjar was a medic who was shot the day before by an Israeli sniper as she was attempted to reach the injured during the protest at the Gaza fence, near Khuza’a.

According to health ministry spokesman, Najjar was a volunteer with the ministry, wearing the white uniform of a medic when she was shot in the chest.

Thousands of Palestinians protested at several locations along the Gaza fence on Friday, calling for their right of return and the end of the siege on Gaza. Since the beginning of the Great Return March, a wave of protests started on Land Day and officially finished on Nakba Day, but continued afterwards, over 120 protesters were killed by the Israeli army, and more than 13,000 others were injured by live ammunition.
