Key parts of the speech of the military spokesman of the Al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Obaida, on the first anniversary of the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation
Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas

- Thanks to God, here we are a year later after the most professional and successful commando operation in the modern era, which targeted a criminal military division [the Zionist army's Gaza division], reinforced with all  combat and intelligence systems. 

- An operation that shook the Zionist enemy and changed the face of the region, in which we struck the enemy with a massive pre-emptive strike as the enemy was planning in the final stages for a major strike against the resistance in Gaza with all its factions. 

- After the aggression on Al-Aqsa mosque reached an unprecedentedly dangerous stage, and the enemy went too far in settlements, Judaization, aggression against prisoners, violation of all taboos, and the siege imposed on Gaza, after all this, the decision was made to implement the historic strategic attack against the Gaza Division, its military garrisons, and its abhorrent settlement encirclement that has been lying down on the hearts of our people, besieging us, and committing against us for decades all the crimes known to nations. 


: Today, the summary of the reality in the region a year after the Al-Aqsa flood is as follows

Palestinian people being recognised as heroes and legends, and Gaza who teaches the world the meaning of dignity, love of the land, longing for freedom, fighting the occupiers, and legendary steadfastness despite the betrayal of those close to us and the cowardice and complicity of the regimes.  

- Despite the brutality of the enemy and those behind it from the forces of oppression and crime, headed by the US administration and some Western governments, our greetings to our great people, whom are our main supporters and backbone, whose sacrifices will not be in vain, God willing, and God would not waste your faith, patience, and steadfastness, O our people, you are a crown on our heads.  

- Regarding the subject of the Zionist enemy's prisoners and the exchange swap, we say to the Zionist occupation public and their families that they could have recovered their prisoners alive a year ago; if that were in line with Netanyahu's ambitions and interests, the deal would have been done. We have been keen since day one to protect the prisoners and preserve their lives

- It is unreasonable for us to intend to kill or harm the prisoners; this is not from the teachings of our religion, and our humanity goal in detaining the prisoners is to exchange them for our prisoners and the rights of our people. What happened with the six prisoners in Rafah may be repeated as long as the Netanyahu government is stubborn and puts obstacles in the way of the exchange deal. 

- We have clear instructions for all groups tasked with guarding the prisoners of the Zionist occupation: entering any combat zone [by the Zionist army] exposes the prisoners to the danger of battle fire. This is what happened in previous cases and may happen again in the future. The fate of the enemy’s prisoners is tied to the actions of his government. The longer it persists, the greater the risks to the prisoners 

  

- After several enemy prisoners were killed by their army's fire or by their government, the situation of the remaining prisoners became complicated. We do not rule out that this matter will enter a dark tunnel, perhaps creating dozens of new "Ron Arads", to be the greatest evidence of the enemy's strategic and moral failure in its history. 

- On the occasion of the first anniversary of the Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood, we call for the greatest Islamic, Arab, and international solidarity campaign with the Palestinian people. We demand military, financial, and logistical support for the resistance, popular demonstrations and protests, and a boycott of the enemy and its allies everywhere. - We call for launching the largest Arab, Islamic, and international media campaign to support the Palestinian people and their resistance and to confront the US-Zionist misleading and lying machine. We also urge launching the largest cyberattack on the Zionist entity by all electronic warfare experts and supporters of the resistance 

- The Zionists must understand that they are outcasts from the entire free world and that the umbrella of shame provided to them by the US administration and some Western European governments is a perforated umbrella.
