GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan has affirmed that his Movement will neither leave the Gaza Strip under any understandings nor make any concessions as a price for reconstruction, stressing that the next day in post-war Gaza will be an inter-Palestinian day.
Hamdan made the remarks during his participation in the 16th Al Jazeera Forum, which kicked off Saturday in Doha under the title “From the War on Gaza to Change in Syria: Shifting Dynamics in the Middle East.”
“We won and were not defeated, so we will never pay the price of the defeat that has been suffered by the occupation under any circumstances,” Hamdan said.
Hamdan also emphasized that the resistance fighter who sacrificed himself for his land and lost half or all of his family would not accept the idea of seeing Hamas being excluded from the Palestinian project under any pressure.
“Listen to me carefully to end this discussion, anyone who replaces the occupation in Gaza or any city in Palestine, we will deal with him through resistance only, as we do with the Israeli occupation. That’s a given and non-negotiable issue,” the Hamas official underlined.
He asserted that his Movement is keen on having Gaza rebuilt and ready to reach an agreement about the next day in Gaza with the Palestinian Authority.
