The United Nasserist Party in Egypt condemned the "disgraceful positions" of Arab regimes, especially on the Israeli invasion of the southernmost city in the Gaza Strip, Rafah.

The movement pointed out that Arab states are "true partners" in the genocidal crimes committed by the Israeli regime against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

In a statement, the movement rejected the stance of the Egyptian government, saying that it has not taken any decisive and deterrent measures that reflect "the prestige and value of Egypt."

Specifically, the United Nasserist Party pointed to the inaction of the Egyptian government vis-à-vis the Israeli invasion of Rafah, which it believes has encroached on Palestinian lives and Egyptian national security.

Regarding the latter, the Nasserist movement is referring to the fact that the invasion of Rafah along the Palestinian-Egyptian border and the Israeli occupation of the Rafah border crossing are actions that violate the terms of the Camp David agreement and Egyptian sovereignty.

On that issue, the statement pointed to the recent clashes between Egyptian troops and Israeli occupation forces near the border, which led to the martyrdom of at least one Egyptian soldier. The movement said that the martyred soldier should be hailed as "a symbol and embodiment of Egypt's national conscience and its steadfast doctrine in war and struggle against the enemy."

In this context, the Egyptian United Nasserist Party called for a series of actions to be taken by the Egyptian government, including:

Severing all ties with the Israeli regime, canceling all treaties, foremost of which are the "shameful" Camp David Accords and "peace agreement", and criminalizing all forms of relations and normalization with "the Zionist enemy";
Providing all forms of support to the valiant Palestinian Resistance;
Asserting Egypt's sovereign rights over the Rafah border crossing by opening it for humanitarian aid and the transfer of injured people without coordination with the Israeli regime;
Lifting the security restrictions imposed on the citizens and releasing the prisoners of conscience, especially those detained due to their participation in pro-Palestine protests;
Supporting campaigns boycotting the companies and products affiliated with the Israeli regime

The movement also affirmed the right of the Egyptian and Arab people to utilize all means and methods of expression in support of the Palestinian people and their Resistance.
