Sana'a - Saba:
Saturday October 7, 2023, was not an ordinary day, but rather a historic day in which Allah humiliated the pride of the Zionists, their noses were rubbed in the mud of humiliation, and their dreams were swept away by a group of believing Palestinian resistance fighters, some of whom died and some of whom are waiting, steadfast, patient, and continuing their struggle despite the pain, oppression, and severity of the aggression, even after a whole year has passed.
On this day, the blessed battle of "Al-Aqsa Flood" began at dawn with a group of mujahedeen raiding the Zionist settlements and military sites in the Gaza Strip by land, sea, and air, killing and capturing hundreds of soldiers and herds of Zionist settlers, a number of whom are still in the hands of the resistance to this day.
After a whole year, and despite the genocide in the Gaza Strip, this day remains a powerful event that will be written in history with the ink of pride and honor, written by the blood of a group of faithful mujahedeen who are confident in Allah's victory, who crossed the borders of helplessness and inaction, who are certain of Allah's victory, support and strength, which is still fuel for the legendary steadfastness of the resistance in Gaza and every inch of Palestine, making the Uma's people happy, increasing their pride, subduing the arrogant enemy and increasing its subjugation.
Observers say that the Palestinian Cause was forgotten before October 7, then the "Al-Aqsa Flood" came and revived the Cause in the hearts of the Uma, especially in the new generations who knew nothing about Palestine. It instilled in them the culture of boycott and resistance, and destroyed the image of "Israel" in the West as it became the most hated in the world.Observers stated that the "Al-Aqsa Flood" sparked the ideas that make change to liberate Palestine, and that October 7 will remain the greatest entry in ancient and modern history, and its men will remain the greatest men who carried out the greatest mission sought for by millions of free people.
The people of the Arab and Islamic nation look at October 7 as the "battle to liberate Palestine". Despite the destruction, blood, arrogance of the West and the betrayal of relatives, the journey of liberation will end at the door of Al-Aqsa Mosque, with fulfillment of Allah's promise, and Allah does not break His promise.
Others see it as the greatest epic in history. The horror of October 7 will always haunt the enemies, and prove to this entity its impotence and weakness, after the myths of the invincible army fell and its soldiers' noses were rubbed under the feet of the brave resistance fighters who wrote heroic epics that will be recorded in history books as the most splendid images of victory and unparalleled heroism.
An American woman listed the positives of the "Al-Aqsa Flood" in a video clip that was widely circulated on social media. "The world has woken up, and the facts have become clear," she said. "You have put the global system to the test and it has failed the test, and people are now aware of what is happening in Palestine.
The cost of our awakening has been high, but we are going through a pivotal moment, and I am honored to be by your side."
Khalil Al-Hayya, a member of the Political Bureau and head of the Arab and Islamic Relations Office of the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas, said: “A year has passed since the start of the Al-Aqsa Flood in Palestine in general, and Gaza in particular, and our Palestinian people are writing a new history with their resistance, blood and steadfastness after the elite of Al-Qassam rushed towards our land occupied in 1948 to write an exceptional epic.
The crossing of the glorious October 7 shattered the illusions that the Zionist enemy had drawn for itself, and was able to convince the world and the region of its alleged superiority and capabilities.”
In a press statement on the occasion of the first anniversary of the Aqsa Flood Battle on Sunday, Al-Hayya added: “The elite mujahedeen were able, within a few hours, to subjugate the Zionist entity and neutralize the most important divisions of its army, leaving them killed, captured or wounded.
Sons of Al-Qassam and the resistance factions are still writing the most wonderful battles while defending and protecting their families and relatives.”
The head of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) abroad, Khaled Meshaal, said on Monday: Aqsa Flood operation returned Israel to “point zero and threatened its existence.”
He described it as “a normal response to the occupation and the acceleration of its plans for settlement, siege and aggression against Al-Aqsa, liquidating the Cause and escalating crimes of torture against prisoners.”
The attack was also “an objective shift in the path of the development of the resistance and the accumulation of its strength, experience and creativity, in light of its leadership's insistence on the strategy of liberation and getting rid of the occupation," he added.
Meshaal stated that Israel wants everyone to be “submissive” to it in the region, and that it "conspires against Egypt, seeks to reduce the importance of the Suez Canal by searching for alternatives, threatens Jordan with the displacement of the West Bank residents to it, and attacks Arab and Islamic national security everywhere."
Meshaal praised those who supported and backed Gaza with weapons, especially in Lebanon, Iran, Yemen and Iraq, and sacrificed "for us and offered a convoy of martyrs, led by Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah."
With the date of the anniversary, the Qassam Battalions, in the early hours of Sunday morning, fired a missile barrage east of Rafah - which the Zionist enemy forces have fully penetrated since May 7 - to send an indisputable message to the enemy that is: "Our resistance remains and is steadfast, no matter the extent of the killing and destruction."
Qassam Battalions republished the speech of its commander-in-chief, Mohammed Deif, at the beginning of the operation, saying: "Let all flags unite, let all fronts come together, and let all arenas be opened, for one goal and a great, noble, and sacred purpose, which is to liberate Palestine and return it to the bosom of Islam.
Our meeting with you is in the courtyards of Al-Aqsa Mosque, liberated and purified, Allah willing, and that is not difficult for Allah."
What Commander Deif called for a year ago seems present today, as many arenas have ignited their front with the Zionist entity. Here is the Lebanese arena, which entered the day after the battle into a support battle and quickly developed into something resembling a comprehensive war.
The arenas of Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and Iran also entered the confrontation line at different levels and effects, with prospects of a confrontation open to all possibilities after the qualitative strike that Iran delivered to military targets of the occupier a few days ago, hitting their targets accurately.
The Aqsa Flood operation proved the fragility of the Zionist enemy, and that the American and European support and the continuous supply of weapons and ammunition for this entity were the antidote to life after it collapsed in front of the heroes of the resistance in Gaza.
In full view of the entire world and in light of the comprehensive support for its crimes by the American administration and Western countries, the Zionist entity is rampant in committing war crimes openly without any deterrence, including genocide, forced displacement, targeting health and educational facilities, preventing the arrival of medicines and food, besieging hospitals and preventing treatment.
On the other hand, the resistance axis could not leave Gaza and its people to be annihilated, and announced the opening of support fronts in Lebanon, Yemen and Iraq, and even Iran provided field support through the True Promise operations.
The Lebanese front was the strongest and most intense, which made the Zionist entity launch a barbaric aggression on Lebanon almost a year after the Al-Aqsa Flood operation.
According to many observers, what the resistance and its axis have accomplished this year has exceeded the expectations of both its supporters and enemies.
A report by the Washington Post said that the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) is still firmly in its positions a year after the Zionist war, with eliminating Hamas declared as its most important goal.
On the other hand, the Washington Post quoted Hamas leaders as saying that the head of the political bureau, Yahiya Sinwar, has not only survived a year after October 7, but is also laying the foundation for the re-emergence of Hamas.
Other observers indicated that due to the resistance’s accurate strikes, many heads have been rolled in leading positions of the Zionist entity, as many of them submitted their resignations due to the failure that the occupier suffered that day.
The head of the Military Intelligence Division (Aman), Aharon Haliva, resigned.
A large number of officials in the office of the spokesman for the enemy army resigned, Major General Yossi Shariel, commander of the Zionist Intelligence Unit 8200, resigned following the painful and destructive strikes by Hezbollah on this unit, and others are expected to resign once the war ends.
The Zionist enemy army is now suffering from a shortage in manpower. A report by the General Staff last March warned of a severe shortage in human resources, due to the killing of hundreds of soldiers and the wounding of thousands of others.
He said: There is a need for seven thousand soldiers to be deployed in the battlefronts.
A poll by the Zionist Broadcasting Corporation showed that 73 percent of Zionists believe in failure in the face of Hamas, while 86 percent of them said they are not prepared to live in the settlements surrounding Gaza after the end of the war.
Last September, official data issued by the Central Bureau of Statistics revealed a significant increase in the phenomenon of Zionist emigration abroad, with more than 40,000 leaving during the first seven months of 2024.
It is worth noting that despite all the destruction and killing committed by the Zionist enemy in Gaza, the year is passing and the resistance in the besieged Palestinian Strip is still able to fight the battle and inflict more losses on the enemy.
