“There is no will that is higher than the will of the Palestinian people.”
O sons of our Palestinian people, O sons of our Arab and Islamic nation, O free people of the world everywhere:
The Zionist occupation began implementing its plan by invading Rafah and continuing its ground operations in which it agreed with its allies and supporters. The occupation occupied and closed the border crossings, cut off relief and humanitarian supplies to the Gaza Strip, targeted all areas sheltering displaced persons, and destroyed, bulldozed and demolished homes, sites, and civil and community facilities. Our people are exposed to the largest catastrophe and genocide targeting the entire Gaza Strip, especially the Rafah area, which has approximately one and a half million displaced civilian citizens. In the face of this genocide, we affirm the following:
- First: We declare full support and support for the Palestinian resistance, and we call on it to do everything necessary without exception to confront the Nazi-Zionist occupation forces and protect our Palestinian people.
Second: The Zionist occupation, the American administration, and their supporters bear full responsibility for the humanitarian catastrophe to which our people are exposed in Rafah.
- Third: We call on the Arab and Islamic countries, international and international institutions and bodies to open the crossings, especially the Rafah crossing, and bring in relief and humanitarian aid according to the previous mechanisms before it was occupied by the Nazi-Zionist occupation forces. Because this aggression and occupation of the Rafah border crossing, under Egyptian-Palestinian sovereignty, is a violation of international conventions and a threat to Arab national security in general and Egyptian national security in particular.
Fourth: We call on our people in the occupied West Bank, Jerusalem, and the occupied interior for a massive uprising in support of our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, and to save Rafah from the humanitarian catastrophe and genocidal war.
- Fifth: We call on the masses of our Arab and Islamic nation and the free people of the world everywhere to come out with marches, demonstrations and sit-ins in all capitals, cities, squares and universities today, Friday, May 10, against the genocidal war and the humanitarian catastrophe in Rafah.
In conclusion: The Zionist-Nazi aggression will be defeated, and the will of our Palestinian people and their resistance will remain above the will of all the usurping occupiers.
