Palestinians everywhere commemorate March 30th of every year in remembrance of the mass dispossession of their predecessors from their lands back in 1976. Back then, a chain of protests erupted opposing the blunt Israeli attempts at colonizing an inhabited land which resulted in several martyrdoms, injuries, and arrests. 

Palestinian factions: Comprehensive resistance is the only way to recover the land

In the same context, the Palestinian resistance factions have called for "national unity" and the strengthening of "comprehensive resistance" in defense of the land against continuous Israeli aggressions.

The factions said, in a press statement on Land Day, that this anniversary "constituted a landmark watershed in the course of the Palestinian struggle against colonialism."

The factions emphasized the unity of land, people, and resistance, describing Palestine as sacred land from which no grain of soil can be relinquished" noting that "the Zionist occupation is a fleeting entity, without a doubt."

The factions emphasized that the right of return is "a firm and immutable right that cannot be forfeited," adding that the Palestinian people "have made great sacrifices for more than 75 years, and remain to do so for the sake of achieving their return and restoring their rights."

Palestinian Resistance faction Hamas said it was adhering to national unity and comprehensive Resistance as a sole means of regaining the Palestinian people's rights, as well as reclaiming occupied Palestinian territories and religious sanctities.

Hamas "will not give up an inch of historic Palestine. The occupation's plans and criminality will not pay off in allowing it to steal our land, nor will it allow it to colonially infiltrate our culture and alter historic facts."

The Resistance movement called on Palestinians to go to Al-Aqsa Mosque and station themselves there to prevent Israeli settlers from raiding it as they seek to divide the mosque.

The Palestinian Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) condemned major powers' provision of protection and aid to Israelis and their political cover for their crimes, which is in violation of international law.

The PFLP underlined that the Israeli occupation sought to escalate against occupied Palestine by forming a new gang under the banner of the Israeli police minister Ben-Gvir's to-be-established "National Guard".
