Islamic Jihad Leader: Palestine Won’t Give up Resistance against Israeli Occupiers

The leader of Palestine’s Islamic Jihad stressed the resistance movement will go ahead with its battle against the occupying regime of Israel despite all pressures.

“The Resistance Movement won’t lay down its arms,” Secretary General Ziad Nakhale was quoted as saying by Palestine’s Al-Quds Arabic-language daily, while reacting to the US and Zionists’ attempts to push back Palestinians’ battle against the occupiers.

“Not only will we not abandon our weapon, but we will also take steps to boost the resistance as much as possible,” he added.

Meanwhile, he decried the blockade on Gaza by saying: “The continuation of the siege of Gaza is a continuation of the Zionist aggression against the rights of the Palestinian people.”

He further stressed the need to increase the unity among the various Palestinian resistance groups.
