Darwish reaffirmed the movement’s commitment to defending the Palestinian people, stating that Hamas “is striving by all means to stop the Zionist aggression, lift the blockade, secure the necessary food aid, and tend to the wounds of our steadfast people in Gaza.”

He stressed that Palestinians will not abandon their right to Palestine, asserting that “their resilience in the face of aggression, despite the pain, shatters the occupation's illusion of implementing its plans.”

The statement emphasized that Tehran continues to view the Palestinian cause as central to its foreign policy and Resistance stance, and supports all efforts to uphold Palestinian rights and sovereignty.
