In a separate statement, Al-Azhar noted that the names of those killed in Gaza will be remembered in the broader history of resistance against injustice, describing them as a source of inspiration for the continued Palestinian struggle to reclaim their rights.
Israel unleashed its brutal Gaza onslaught on October 7, 2023, after Hamas carried out its historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
The Tel Aviv regime has so far failed to achieve its declared objectives of eliminating Hamas and freeing captives in Gaza, despite killing 57,418 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 136,261 others.
