Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri stated Saturday that the victory of the Gaza
Strip is a turning point in the history of the Arab-Zionist conflict, adding
that the next stage is the stage of the victory of the resistance project
and the failure of the settlement project.

Abu Zuhri said that this initial victory in Gaza encourages the resistance
to continue on this path until the liberation of the Aqsa Mosque,
considering the victory a new rebirth of the Arab and Islamic nation which
revolted all over the world in support of the Palestinian resistance.

Regarding the withdrawal of Turkish premier Recep Erdogan from Davos
conference in Switzerland, the Hamas spokesman said that his Movement
applauds the attitude of the Turkish premier in Davos and his withdrawal
from the conference in protest of the Zionist disregard of the Palestinian
blood.

Dr. Hasan Khreisheh, the deputy speaker of the PLC, told the Quds Press that
the Gaza victory was possible thanks to the steadfastness of the Palestinian
resistance, despite its modest capabilities and three years of siege, as
well as the tactics used by the resistance, which were similar to those used
earlier by the Lebanese resistance.

Dr. Khreisheh underlined that the victory of the Palestinian resistance in
Gaza inaugurates a new stage based only on the choice of resistance.

The deputy speaker pointed out that the Zionist aggression on Gaza was
planned a long time ago when the results of the Palestinian legislative
elections were announced in 2006, where the political isolation then began
and an economic embargo was imposed and after that a large number of
Palestinian lawmakers were kidnapped by Zionist entity.
