Press Statement with regards to the ceasefire agreement between Lebanon and the Zionist enemy
Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)

We commend the pivotal role played by the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, in support of the Gaza Strip and the Palestinian resistance, and the great sacrifices made by Hezbollah and its leadership, led by the late Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, and we appreciate the steadfastness of the brotherly Lebanese people, and their constant solidarity with the Palestinian people, in confronting the Zionist occupation and its brutal aggression, asking God Almighty to protect Lebanon and its people from all harm and evil.

- The enemy's acceptance of the agreement with Lebanon without fulfilling the conditions it set, is an important milestone in shattering Netanyahu's illusions of changing the map of the Middle East by force, and his illusions of defeating the resistance forces or disarming them.

- We affirm that this agreement would not have been possible without the steadfastness of the resistance, and the popular support around it, and we are confident that the Axis of Resistance will continue to support our people and their battle by all possible means.

- As we (in Hamas) follow the progress of this agreement in Lebanon, we express our commitment to cooperate with any efforts to stop the fire in Gaza, and we are interested in stopping the aggression against our people, within the parameters of stopping the aggression on Gaza that we have agreed upon; namely, a ceasefire, the withdrawal of the occupation forces, the return of the displaced, and the achievement of a real and complete prisoner exchange deal.

- We praise and are proud of the epic of steadfastness and pride that our people who are steadfast in the Gaza Strip have been showing for more than a year, and we support them as they write with their blood and sacrifices bright pages in the history of our people's continuous struggle, and we are with them as one body in the trench to defend our land and confront the enemy's plans, and we pledge our loyalty to them until the aggression stops.

- We call on the sister Arab and Islamic countries and the forces of the free world to take serious action and pressure Washington and the Zionist occupation to stop its brutal aggression against our Palestinian people, and end the ongoing war of extermination in the Gaza Strip.

- We affirm that our Palestinian people and their valiant resistance will remain faithful to their national principles and legitimate rights, and defend their land and holy sites, until the occupation is defeated and eliminated, and the independent Palestinian state is established with Jerusalem as its capital.
