The Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement (PIJ), mourned its military wing's martyred commander and spokesperson Naji Abu Seif, more commonly known for his nom de guerre Abu Hamza, who was killed in an Israeli assassination alongside his family and his brother's family. 

In a statement issued by the Palestinian Resistance movement, Abu Hamza, the spokesperson for the al-Quds Brigades, was eulogized as "a voice of the Resistance, fearing no reproach in his devotion to God, eloquent in his speech, and courageous in his heroic positions in defense of the Resistance and the rights of our people, never wavering in his stance."

The statement also condemned the "treacherous, spiteful assassination, carried out by the nazi zionist criminal entity," as part of a series of brutal massacres against the Palestinian people, including women and children, and ultimately supported by the United States. 

"While the world stands in cowardly silence, [we] will only strengthen our determination to continue defending our people and their rights until the goals of this aggression are completely thwarted," the PIJ concluded. 

Martyr Abu Hamza’s real name is Naji Abu Seif. It is our duty to know their names and faces. We owe them at least this.

A glimpse into Abu Hamza's journey

Abu Hamza became a prominent media figure after years of work, with people eagerly awaiting his updates on the latest developments and the stance of the brigades, as reflected in the statement issued by the Islamic Jihad Movement in the obituary.

On February 12, Abu Hamza confirmed, via Telegram posts, that the fate of the Israeli captives held by the Resistance in the Gaza Strip "depends on the behavior of the Israeli occupation government’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, either positively or negatively," holding the Israeli government responsible for its failure to adhere to the ceasefire agreement and its ongoing violations.

Abu Hamza also conducted an exclusive interview with Al Mayadeen in July 2024, titled, "The Coming Days Will Be the Decisive Word."

'Israel' resumes war on Gaza

The Israeli occupation forces launched intense airstrikes across the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, targeting residential areas, refugee camps, and public infrastructure, following the official collapse of the ceasefire halting aggression on the Palestinian territory.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the death toll from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has risen to at least 426 martyrs, with an additional 600 wounded, many in critical condition.

Meanwhile, Gaza's Civil Defense spokesperson, Mahmoud Basal, stated that over 400 people have been martyred, while between 300 to 600 others have been injured, warning that many may succumb to their wounds due to the severity of their injuries.
