Abu Obeida, spokesman for the Al-Qassam Brigades, issued a statement on Sunday regarding the current situation in Gaza.
"In the face of Zionist-American aggression and genocide, the Al-Aqsa flood was not the beginning of our resistance work but a response to the enemy's crimes," Abu Obeida stated, marking nine months since the start of the conflict.
He emphasized the Palestinian resistance's resilience without external support for weapons and supplies, despite severe shortages of food and medicine among the people. Abu Obeida condemned the occupation's intensified systematic cleansing and extermination in the West Bank, Al-Quds (Jerusalem), and Gaza.
"The occupation army continues to use civilians as human shields, bomb homes, and invade hospitals," he added, pointing to independent polls reflecting widespread Palestinian support for the resistance amid ongoing aggression.
"Our fighters demonstrate spirit akin to the time of the Prophet's Companions," Abu Obeida continued, noting the engagement of all 24 battalions from Beit Hanoun to Rafah with improved performance in each confrontation.
He criticized international organizations for failing to address the enemy's crimes in Gaza and highlighted the vulnerability of forces hiding in civilian areas or behind armored vehicles.
Despite sacrifices of martyrs, soldiers, and leaders, Abu Obeida affirmed the steadfastness of the Al-Qassam Brigades. He underscored the ongoing battles in Rafah, operations in Shuja’iya, and northern Gaza as testament to the strength of their resistance and the failure of the enemy.
"With God's help, our capabilities remain robust, and we have recruited thousands of new fighters," he stated, emphasizing the growing resilience and capability of their forces against enemy plans.
Abu Obeida hinted at forthcoming revelations regarding strategic deceptions against Shin Bet and enemy security systems, promising documents to be unveiled at an appropriate time.
He extended gratitude to Hezbollah, Palestinian Resistance factions in Lebanon, AnsarAllah in Yemen, and the Iraqi resistance for their support, while asserting inevitability in the response from their people in the 1948 lands led by heroic citizens.
"We remain committed to halting aggression and standing with our people," Abu Obeida concluded. (ILKHA)
