In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Those who emigrated and were driven out of their homes, and were harmed in My cause, and fought and were killed, I will surely absolve them of their sins, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, as a reward from God. And God, with Him, is the best reward. Praise be to God, Lord of the worlds, vanquisher of the factions, mover of the clouds, revealer of the Book. Praise be to God, the honorer of the truthful believers with His victory, the humbler of the arrogant polytheists with His might. And peace and blessings be upon the Prophet of God, the leader of the caravan of light and the mujahideen, and upon his pure and good family and his companions.
And thereafter, O masses of our dear, patient people, O crown of the heads of the free, and mark of honor on the brow of the revolutionaries, O all the free and mujahideen in the world, peace be upon you, and the mercy and blessings of God. We stand at a pivotal and difficult juncture, a historical crossroads, as a people, a nation, and a resistance, from the stations of struggle of the Arabs and Muslims in general, and the Palestinians in particular, in our long and extended conflict with those who have been possessed by the lust for killing, blood, and occupation, in the hope of realizing the dream of the founders of this temporary entity of the Hebrew state from the Nile to the Euphrates.
This battle came in response to the infinite crimes of the enemy against our people in the city of Jerusalem, the heart of millions of Muslims, and the criminality against our cities in the occupied West Bank, and the siege and killing practiced by the occupation against the Gaza Strip. It is a battle that was imposed upon our people, and our resistance responded to it by retaliating against all this aggression and criminality with a sacred, historical crossing into our occupied lands and an assault on what is known as the Gaza envelope, in the largest and most successful qualitative complex military operation in the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Thus began the heroic Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood, in which we, by the grace of God, in Saraya Al-Quds, were an integral part from the first hour. So there was the advance and the assault on the positions of the cowardly enemy in the Gaza Division, the settlements, and the kibbutzim of the envelope. And we announced, by the grace of God, from the first day, our capture of a number of soldiers, officers, and settlers, in addition to eliminating those who dared to confront our valiant elite, who showed high readiness through their swift raids, translating what they learned and trained on for years in the fields of preparation and equipping.
And after this work, which is guaranteed and stipulated in all customs, laws, and religions, the enemy began its barbaric war against our people, in a clear behavior that does not express a reaction to a military operation carried out by the Palestinian resistance, but rather reflects a premeditated intention for war and annihilation against a defenseless civilian population, with unlimited American support. It has shown its true, clear image to everyone by killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians, children, and women, bombing thousands of homes on the heads of their inhabitants, committing abominable massacres against families, displacing hundreds of thousands, forcing them to flee their areas and homes, and arresting civilians and thousands of youths. This indicates that this army is devoid of humanity and values; rather, it is a bloody and racist army led by a government of thugs.
O masses of our people, O revolutionaries of the land and its free people, we have begun this battle by relying on God, and we have left our homes, our families, and all that we possess. We knew well the difficulty of the path and the great responsibility that falls upon us and our dear, struggling people. And we are facing this occupation with the support of a faithful group in Lebanon, Yemen, and Iran.
The enemy began its ground war after a massive wave of bombing that targeted every inch of the Strip, enabling its armored military division, along with mercenaries and American weapons, to enter the small Strip in its vast determination, defiance, and rejection of injustice. And before the first tank entered, Saraya Al-Quds was in the field with all its military formations. The mujahideen who were entrenched in the tunnels and combat positions emerged then to confront with various fire means with all strength, will, determination, and reliance on God in Jabalia, Beit Hanoun, Shuja'iyya, Zeitoun, the Center, Khan Younis, and Rafah, with morale soaring to the heavens and shouts of "Allahu Akbar" echoing from the throats of the oppressed and subjugated.
O masses of our people, and all lovers, supporters, and backers in the world, we, on the honor of this great achievement and steadfastness in the heroic Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood, and on the path to liberation, announce to you the news of the martyrdom of hundreds of our fighters, cadres, and axis commanders in all specialties, who fought valiantly on the battlefields. Leading them is a group of members of the Military Council and the General Staff Council in Saraya Al-Quds, who were at the forefront of tens of thousands of martyrs of our struggling Palestinian people. They are the martyred leaders, members of the Military Council of Saraya Al-Quds: Commander Martyr Mohammed Ismail Abu Sakheel, Commander Martyr Hassan Ali Al-Na'em, Commander Martyr Dr. Riyad Saleh Hshish, Commander Martyr Yousef Hosni Nabhan, Commander Martyr Marzouq Mohammed Al-Sha'er, Commander Martyr Mahmoud Ahmed Abu Shamalah. The martyred leaders, members of the General Staff Council of Saraya Al-Quds: Commander Martyr Ibrahim Mohammed Juma'a, Commander Martyr Mohammed Ibrahim Al-Qatrawi, Commander Martyr Wael Rajab Abu Fununa, Commander Martyr Mohammed Zaki Al-Bayouk, Commander Martyr Tha'er Mansour Abed, Commander Martyr Khaled Mousa Al-Banna, Commander Martyr Abdullah Mahmoud Abu Ayada, Commander Martyr Ayman Nasser Zarab. And the Commander Martyr, the voice of resistance and the voice of the steadfast, free, and vigilant fighters, the spokesperson for Saraya Al-Quds, Naji Maher Abu Saif.
We also salute the great legendary steadfastness of our heroic, great, patient, and hopeful people, who have made immense sacrifices that no other people have made, and have been an example to be followed in struggle, steadfastness, and firmness. You are the pillars of the earth, the basis of all hope, and the symbol of all honor. Without you and without your steadfastness, there would be no resistance, and we would not have recorded this achievement, which is attributed to you first and foremost on the path to liberating our Jerusalem, our prisoners, and all the land of our holy land. So congratulations to you for what is reserved for you in the account of God Almighty, who says: "Only those who are patient will be given their reward without limit."
We in Saraya Al-Quds were, are, and will remain a project for fighting the Zionist enemy as long as it remains on our land. This was evident in this battle, which, had it continued for years, we would not have laid down our weapons, retreated, or been broken. And here we renew our affirmation of the strong relationship with all the military wings of the resistance factions, foremost among them our mujahideen brothers in the Al-Qassam Brigades, with whom our communication has not ceased, jointly managing the course of the battle from its beginning until now.
The scenes of the freedom of the prisoners and our breaking of the chains come today with greater specificity, which is that we have paid dearly with the blood of our valiant people and the blood of our noble fighters for this noble and great goal. And because the price of freedom is high, what has happened has happened. We in Saraya Al-Quds declare our full commitment to the ceasefire agreement that was agreed upon in the Egyptian city of Sharm El Sheikh. In this context, our resistance will monitor the enemy's commitment to what has been agreed upon, and we will monitor what is happening on the ground sequentially. We declare our commitment to this agreement to the extent of the enemy's commitment to it.
A salute of thanks and gratitude to the heroes, the owners of the word and image in the free Arab and foreign media, and to the media channels, journalists, correspondents, and photographers, as well as the news platforms, websites, and influencers who have redirected the compass to Gaza and made it the primary issue throughout the days of this battle. We also extend our greetings and gratitude to the medical teams who have dedicated themselves to saving lives and treating wounds, and to the civil defense personnel who are fighting rescue battles with meager capabilities, extracting hope with their bare hands from the rubble of death.
A salute to our brothers in the dear brotherly Yemen, who have launched their missiles and drones and imposed an unprecedented naval blockade on the criminal enemy and its allies. They are with us until the moment they bid farewell to the Chief of Staff of their armed forces, the great jihadi leader Mohammed Abdul Karim Al-Ghamari. And to our mujahideen brothers, companions of blood and martyrdom, heroes of Hezbollah and their valiant resistance, who stood by us with their missiles and their martyrs, offering their most precious possessions in support of Gaza, led by His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. And to the Islamic Republic, its leadership and people, who have offered their best scientists and leaders from the Revolutionary Guard as martyrs on the path to Jerusalem. We remember the martyr of Palestine, Haj Ramadan, may God have mercy on him.
And greetings to the free people of the world who have raised their voices in support of our cause in all parts of the earth. In conclusion, may there be vast mercy for the martyrs, and pride for their brave families, and a speedy recovery for our wounded people and our resistance, whose hands and feet have been amputated, but whose dignity has not been broken. And greetings to our victorious brigades in the occupied West Bank, to our living mujahideen in Gaza, to their tired bodies and their burning souls. You have performed a deed whose like is rarely seen in all the experiences of national liberation throughout the ages. And on this basis, resistance will remain as long as the occupation remains. "So when the second of the two comes, [we will send] your faces [to be disfigured] and to enter the temple as they entered it the first time and to destroy what they have taken." Our jihad continues, and our fighting will go on until Jerusalem, God willing. And peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
