He called on the Palestinian factions gathered in the Egyptian city of El Alamein to "unite the Palestinian ranks," calling it "a dear demand of the masses of Palestinian people and our nation."

"We suffer from a fragile Arab system, from influence by enemy hegemons, and disintegration in Arab unity."

The conference's Secretary-General stressed that "We suffer from a fragile Arab system, from influence by enemy hegemons, and disintegration in Arab unity."

He emphasized that the "unity of the Palestinian ranks should not overshadow the complete liberation of Palestine from the river to the sea," adding that "We are genuine partners in the resistance, and we are not just supporters or standing in solidarity (with the Palestinian cause)."

For his part, Hezbollah's Arab and International Relations Chief, Ammar Al-Mousawi, confirmed that "What is currently happening in occupied Palestine represents a great development in the Resistance, and this applies to all facets of the Palestinian struggle."

He added that the ongoing campaign against the Resistance, its weapons, and its decisions, is considered slander, distortion, and considered a continuation of the Israeli wars on Lebanon.

Furthermore, according to Al-Mousawi, the recent events at the border demonstrate the development in the Resistance's power and "the bravery of our people and our army," as "the Resistance was, still is, and must remain, the nation's first choice when working to restore its rights, especially in Palestine."

Al-Mousawi stressed that all the "desperate attempts to amend the decline in the US role, by enflaming conflicts or imposing hunger, must be confronted," and called for confronting the blockade imposed on Syria and breaking its tools. 

He also stressed that "the foreboding of civil strife within the Zionist entity is another image of the entity's fragility, as its residents feel the imminence of its demise."

Al-Mousawi commented on the recent regional agreements that would enhance "means of cooperation, for the nation's interest." 

He believed that the new international developments are an opportunity to establish a new world order based on multipolarity.

"ما يحصل في #فلسطين المحتلة يمثل تطوراً كبيراً في العمل المقاوم وهذا ينطبق على كل ساحات النضال الفلسطيني".

For his part, Maher Al-Taher, Head of International Relations in the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said that "[US Army Lieutenant General Keit] Dayton and the Zionist entity are now facing a new Palestinian generation." 

Al-Taher saluted the spirit of Egyptian martyr, Mohamed Salah, stressing that he "demonstrated the spirit of Egypt and its people."

Regarding the recent confrontations in Palestine, Al-Taher affirmed that "our people are fully aware that we are waging a battle for existence, and that the Palestinians are supported by the sons of their Arab nation - who reject normalization - and by the axis of resistance, which is growing stronger day by day."

He wondered about the possibility of "building national unity with the presence of the Oslo Accords, or the ongoing political arrests."

Al-Taher stressed that Palestinian national unity cannot be built except based on Resistance being a strategic option in confronting the enemy.
