GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The Hamas Movement has congratulated the Palestinian people, the Arab and Muslim nations, and the world’s free people on the release of 90 Palestinian women and children from Israeli jails as part of the ceasefire agreement, which took effect on Sunday.
“The scenes of our people celebrating and making victory signs upon receiving the prisoners have reflected further the popular rallying around the resistance and highlighted its solid place in their hearts,” Hamas said in a statement on Monday.
“The massive crowds of our people who rallied to receive the freed prisoners despite the occupation’s repressive measures were like a declaration of defiance against the occupation and an expression of their thirst for freedom and the liberation of their land and holy sites,” Hamas added.
“The footage of the three female prisoners being handed over to the enemy showed them in full physical and psychological health, while signs of neglect and exhaustion appeared on the faces of our male and female prisoners — which reflects the great difference between the values and morals of the resistance and the barbarism and fascism of the occupation,” Hamas underlined.
“We stand in these historic moments in reverence and appreciation for the sacrifices of our great people in Gaza and our victorious resistance,” the Movement said.
