A Delegation from the Leadership of Fatah Movement and the Palestine Liberation Organization Visits the Village of Al-Mughayer

SadaNews - A high-level delegation from the leadership of the Palestinian National Liberation Movement (Fatah) and the Palestine Liberation Organization visited the village of Al-Mughayer, northeast of Ramallah and Al-Bireh, today, Monday. The village is facing continuous assaults from the occupation forces and settlers, which have included sieges, the uprooting and theft of nearly ten thousand olive trees, in addition to the seizure of agricultural lands.

The delegation was headed by Mahmoud Al-Aloul, Deputy Chairman of Fatah, and Azam Al-Ahmad, Secretary-General of the Executive Committee of the PLO, with the participation of members of the Revolutionary Council and the leadership of the Mobilization and Organization Commission and the Youth Movement, along with representatives from various factions of the PLO and the Wall and Settlement Resistance Committee.

The leadership of the Fatah Movement in Al-Mughayer, the village council members, and the village notables received the delegation at the village council headquarters. They appreciated this visit and emphasized that the assaults on Al-Mughayer are part of plans for annexation and imposing sovereignty and attempting to break the will of the residents and deter them from defending their land and homes.

During the meeting, Al-Aloul affirmed that Al-Mughayer has been and will remain a symbol of Palestinian struggle, stating: "We take pride in your steadfastness, sacrifices, and bravery in facing the occupation and settlers, and we are working with all our might at the political, popular, and international levels to strengthen your resilience. You are the guardians of the land and identity, and the occupation will not succeed in breaking your will."

He extended greetings to the head of the village council, Amin Abu Aliyah, who had been arrested under the pretext of supporting the villagers against the assaults, praising his genuine role in serving the village and its people and enhancing their steadfastness.

For his part, Al-Ahmad emphasized that the occupation will not be able to subjugate Al-Mughayer, which has a long legacy of struggle, saying: "Al-Mughayer will remain a model of continuous Palestinian struggle and will continue to be a thorn in the throat of the occupation. We are here to stay, and the occupation will vanish, no matter how long it takes."

The delegation visited the agricultural lands that have been subjected to the uprooting of thousands of olive trees, confirming that this crime will only increase the determination of Palestinians to hold onto their land.

Al-Aloul planted an olive tree to replace one of the uprooted trees as a symbolic message of the continuation of life and the deep-rootedness of Palestinians in their land.

At the end of the visit, the members of the delegation went to the home of the martyr Hamdi Abu Aliyah, meeting with his family and father, expressing their pride and respect for this home that has produced a martyr and five prisoners and has faced repeated destruction and threats from the occupation.

They affirmed that the sacrifices of the Abu Aliyah family represent a model of sacrifice and steadfastness, and that the blood of martyrs and the resilience of prisoners will remain the fuel for the Palestinian struggle for freedom and independence.
