Sana'a - Saba:
The Palestinian resistance closed the file of the last operation of the first phase of the prisoner exchange agreement between the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and the Zionist occupation today, Thursday; in which hundreds of prisoners were released in exchange for the bodies of four prisoners of the occupation.
The feelings of the families of the Palestinian prisoners were indescribable, as they waited for their sons and relatives after long years of captivity; feelings that the pen is unable to describe and comprehend about the moment of that meeting, the moment of freedom, as the wait began on Wednesday evening, and the longing for the meeting continued to escalate until the date was reached.
The scenes in Ramallah, Gaza and elsewhere were filled with a clear truth that the release of this large number of prisoners, including child prisoners and female prisoners, confirms the extent of the resistance's ability to achieve victory in many languages, and how great this achievement is, which the resistance has achieved, and through which families have been reunited with their sons after decades of loss and hope.
Perhaps the story of the prisoner Nael Barghouti, who lived half a century as a prisoner in the occupation's prisons, encapsulates the greatness of this act on the one hand, and on the other hand, it confirms the courage of the Palestinian as a resister and a prisoner at the same time. Barghouti was released after fifty years, clinging to his freedom and believing in the freedom of his country and people. He obtained his freedom as part of the "Freedom Flood" deal.
"The resistance project is to liberate a nation, not just to liberate prisoners," with these powerful words, the longest-serving freed prisoner in the world, Nael Barghouti, expressed his gratitude to the Palestinian resistance hours after his release as part of the seventh batch of the Freedom Flood deal, within the framework of the ceasefire in Gaza.
While on the bus taking him to Egypt, the dean of Palestinian prisoners said, "The taste of freedom is indescribable, but our freedom will not be complete without the success of the resistance project," addressing the people of the Gaza Strip, "from women, children, men, and resistance fighters, soldiers and leaders, and to the soil of Gaza with greetings. All words do not do justice to the people of Gaza, and all that the occupation has done and destroyed is not worth the fingernail of a Palestinian child in Gaza.”
The Director of the Prisoners’ Media Office, Ahmed Al-Qudra, confirmed that today marks a new chapter of glory, as freedom flows in the veins of those who have endured behind bars.
The Qassam fighter released in the Al-Aqsa Flood deal, Ammar Al-Zaben, from Nablus and deported to Egypt, saluted the martyred leaders, the resistance and the Qassam Brigades, stressing that the blood of the people of Gaza will not be in vain, and that the Palestinian people have learned a lot from their patience, steadfastness and sacrifices.
Here is the occupation entity that committed the most heinous crimes in order to release its prisoners, and has failed to liberate them, and has continued to be stubborn for more than 15 months, threatening the Hamas movement with destruction, until it had no choice but to recognize the resistance, through negotiating with it to release the prisoners and cease fire, and in doing so it has admitted its defeat and defeat before history.
Over the weeks that it took to implement the first phase of the agreement, amid the occupation's attempts to stop its implementation and its procrastination in implementing what concerns it, the resistance wrote bright lines about the extent of its commitment and respect for the agreements as part of its religious culture, while the occupation appeared in a position of one who breaks and violates its covenant and commitment; so that the resistance could tell the world: Here is the resistance and here is the occupation in their true form.
The diseases, ailments, weakness and emaciation that appeared on the Palestinian prisoners as a result of what they were exposed to in Israeli prisons reflects the extent of the ugliness of the occupation's culture, while the resistance handed over its living prisoners in a state befitting the resistance as a noble act; and the kissing of one of the Zionist prisoners on the forehead of the resistance soldiers during one of the exchange operations was nothing but evidence and testimony from them of the greatness and nobility of the Palestinian resistance; and this is not strange as they seek freedom and defy the storm!
