Hamas Mourns Martyred Leader Yahya Al-Sinwar

Hamas Resistance Movement issued on Friday a statement to mourn its politburo chief  and commander of Al-Aqsa Flood, Yahya Al-Sinwar.

Addressing the Palestinian people, Arab and Islamic nations, as well as all the free nations and citizens, Hamas mourned “one of the noblest and bravest men, a man who dedicated his life for Palestine, and gave his soul for the sake of Allah on the path to its liberation”.

He ascended as a heroic martyr, advancing and not retreating, brandishing his weapon, engaging and confronting the occupation army at the forefront of the ranks, moving between all the combat positions, steadfast and firm on the land of proud Gaza, defending the land of Palestine and its sanctities, and inspiring in kindling the spirit of steadfastness, patience, and resistance, the statement added.

The statement also drew some of the aspects of Sinwar biography:

The martyr leader Yahya Al-Sinwar lived as a fighter for the sake of Allah, and made his way in the Hamas movement since he was a young man involved in its jihadi activities; then during the 23 years of captivity, he defeated the Zionist jailer, and after he was released from prison in the Wafaa’ al-Ahrar deal, he continued his dedication, planning, and jihad until his eyes were filled with joy on October 7, 2023; the day of the great flood that shook the depths of the Zionist entity and exposed the fragility of its alleged security. This was followed by epics of legendary steadfastness of our people and the valor of our victorious resistance, until he attained the most honorable position and the highest medal and ascended to be beside his Lord as a martyred witness satisfied with what he had offered in jihad and activities on the ground.

The martyred leader Yahya Al-Sinwar was a continuation of the caravan of great martyr leaders following the footsteps of the martyr founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, Dr. Abdul Aziz Al-Rantisi, Al-Muqaadmah, Abu Shanab, Jamal Mansour, Jamal Saleem, the martyr leader Ismail Haniyeh and his deputy Sheikh Saleh Al-Arouri, in addition to the caravan of martyrs from all the leaders and sons of our people and nation. We affirm that this blood will continue to enlighten our way and constitute an incentive for more steadfastness and perseverance, and that the Hamas movement is continuing with the covenant of the founding leaders and martyrs until the aspirations of our people are achieved for comprehensive liberation, return, and the establishment of the Palestinian state on the entire Palestinian national soil with Jerusalem as its capital, God willing, and it will turn into a curse on the invading occupiers who have invaded this land.”

Hama reiterated that the prisoners of the occupation held by the resistance will not return except by stopping the aggression on Gaza, withdrawing from it, and releasing the heroic prisoners from the prisons of the occupation.

Hamas concluded it would continue to move forward, and the spirit of the Al-Aqsa Flood would remain shining brightly, pulsating with life in the souls of our people.

“We are committed to your covenant, Abu Ibrahim, and your banner will not fall, but will remain fluttering high.”
