Al-Nakhalah to Al Mayadeen: The Resistance Will Respond to Any Aggression by Bombing 'Tel Aviv'
The Secretary-General of the Islamic Jihad Movement, Ziyad al-Nakhalah, in an interview with Al Mayadeen, said that " 'Israel' considers Gaza a time bomb that it needs to dismantle."
The Secretary-General of the Islamic Jihad Movement, Ziad al-Nakhalah, said that "the martyr Bahaa Abou al-Ata left a great impact and we will continue his path in the resistance," stressing that "the al-Quds Brigades responded with the battle of the “Sayhat al-Fajr” (The Cry of Dawn) to the assassination of Abou al-Ata and the attempt to assassinate the leader al-Ajouri."
Al-Nakhalah, in an interview with Al Mayadeen today, said that "'Israel' considers Gaza a time bomb that it needs to dismantle, and the new facilitations come within this framework."
The Secretary-General indicated that he does not rule out the assassination or targeting of leaders and members of the Islamic Jihad movement, to which the response would be the immediate "bombing of Tel Aviv."

Al-Nakhalah stressed that "the action of the resistance is continuous and is not linked to time and is not limited to Gaza," revealing that the Palestinian resistance restored its military capabilities following the battle of Saif al-Quds and strengthened its arsenal with continuous manufacturing.
He believed that "'Israel' failed to tame Gaza with war, and now it is trying to do so through economic measures."
The Secretary-General of the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine stressed that "the resistance has obligations, the most important of which is defending the people, while "Israel" is trying to separate Gaza from the West Bank and al-Quds."
Al-Nakhalah considered that "everyone in the region is betting that the resistance will fear for privileges and facilitations and will not enter into a war," stressing that "the resistance should not play the role of an agent in facilitating the work of citizens within the occupied territories."
Al-Nakhalah revealed that "Israel" wants "to turn the West Bank and Gaza into warehouses for workers," which they completely refuse.
He continued, "We were baffled by the decision of the Hamas government to register the names of Palestinians to work within the occupied territories," subsequently alluding to the existence of fears of diverting people in Gaza from a state of support for the resistance to a search for Israeli facilitation.
Al-Nakhalah criticized the negative attitude of the Palestinian authorities towards popular movements and resistance in the West Bank, noting that the authority is sending messages that it controls security in the West Bank and would obstruct any resistance efforts.
Al-Nakhalah called on the resistance fighters in Jenin camp and the West Bank to carry out their duties and continue their fight against "Israel", stressing that the occupation wants the Palestinian people to surrender and hand over complete control over al-Quds and the West Bank.
Moreover, al-Nakhalah held the Palestinian authorities, through its security coordination with the occupation, "responsible for what happened with the released prisoners who arrived in the West Bank," in reference to the re-arrest of the two prisoners who were liberated from Gilboa prison in the at-Tur region, namely Zakaria al-Zubaidi and Mohammad al-Arida.
Al-Nakhalah further affirmed that Iran stands by the Palestinian cause and views "Israel" as an enemy, a position that is not subject to change.
In a different context, the Secretary-General called for an end to the "unjust war against the Yemeni people, who are a resistant people and are aligned with Palestine and the resistance."
