  • After fooling 'Israel', 'martyred' Resistance chief emerges in Tulkarm

Earlier this week, Israeli occupation forces carried out a brutal three-day raid of Tulkarm's Nur Shams refugee camp seeking to assassinate Resistance leaders and conduct mass arrests as part of the Israeli plan to end rebellious movements in the occupied West Bank.

At least 14 Palestinians were killed and dozens detained by Israeli forces throughout the incursion.

Martyrs included the commander of al-Quds Brigades - Tulkarm Brigade, Mohammad Jaber (Abu Shujaa), who was besieged for long hours by occupation soldiers amid heavy confrontations. Abu Shujaa was mourned in a statement by the group on Friday. Shortly after, Palestinian social media groups and users engaged the news and started lamenting the loss of the prominent Resistance leader.

However, a voice note went viral among Resistance supporters, with the speaker claiming to Abu Shujaa, stating that he was still alive and that he managed to escape the Israeli siege while alluding to them he was killed.

Nevertheless, there was no way to confirm that the message was indeed recorded by him. Up until Sunday.

Glory to You who defended your homeland, who carried the homeland on your shoulders, Your camp believed in you, Tulkarem believed in you.

During the funeral processions of the martyrs in the camp today, Abu Shujaa appeared among the crowds, surprising both the occupation and his citizens.

The masses were both angered while carrying the bodies of their martyrs and rejoicing that the Resistance leader was still alive.

In a later video, Abu Shujaa appeared between his brothers in arms from the Tulkarm Brigade.

After he was congratulated for his safe return, Abu Shuja was asked about his message to the occupation.

The Resistance leader responded: "[My] message is that we defied the occupation, and [i] am still alive, and God willing will continue in the path of the martyrs. And no matter how many of us [Resistance fighters] they assassinate, we will move forward until victory."

He further revealed that the Israeli occupation forces are concealing casualties, including both fatalities and injuries, resulting from the confrontations with the Resistance in the Nur Shams camp, daring the Israeli establishments to "admit to what happened" in several neighborhoods in the camp.

Finally, Abu Shujaa addressed Resistance forces and Palestinians both in the West Bank and Gaza, in addition to his citizens living abroad, that "God willing we will not fail you," urging them to continue marching down the same path as the martyrs who have ascended before them.
