Press Statement

The attempts of the Zionist enemy to implement its plans by undermining civil peace and spreading chaos will not succeed. We stand firmly behind the security forces in enforcing the law.

The kidnapping and killing of one of the police officers, the martyr hero Ibrahim Sheldan (al-Najjar), in Deir al-Balah today, Tuesday, and the mutilation of his body while performing his national duty, is a reprehensible crime. Those responsible must be held accountable with strength and determination.

This crime serves the Zionist objectives of trying to break the Palestinian internal front, spread chaos and corruption, and ultimately aim to displace our people. It requires the responsible authorities to act with an iron fist against anyone who dares to collaborate with the occupation in its criminal plans.

While we express our pride and appreciation for all the people of our Palestinian nation in Gaza and their families and tribes, including the elders and leaders who have resisted the occupation and its plans to break the internal front—whether through bombing police forces, security forces, or using hunger as a weapon, or attempting to entice families—we affirm the necessity of standing united against any ongoing Zionist efforts to implement this criminal plan.
