Palestinians ‘blood in Jenin well not be in vain, says PM Shtayyeh
On the other hand in Jenin, the Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh yesterday paid a visit to Jenin refugee camp where he offered his condolences to the families of the Palestinians recently killed by Israeli soldiers in the northern occupied West Bank city of Jenin and told them that the blood of their sons will not be in vain, Wafa News Agency reported.
“We know with certainty that this occupation does not want peace, the occupation that every day bankrolls its electoral campaign with Palestinian blood,” Shtayyeh told the families of the physician Abdullah Abu al-Tin and Matin Fayek Dbaya, both killed during an Israeli army raid on Jenin on Friday, and Mohammad Maher Turkman, who died in an Israeli hospital several weeks after he was shot and critically wounded by Israeli soldiers in the Valley of Jordan.
The Prime Minister said that since the beginning of this year, more than 170 Palestinians were killed by Israeli soldiers, and the number of freedom fighters incarcerated in Israeli prisons has exceeded 5,600.
“We say to the families of the martyrs that we are committed to ending the occupation, establishing the independent Palestinian state, freeing the prisoners, and returning (to the homeland). The compass of the Palestinian struggle will continue to point to Jerusalem, the capital of our state,” said Shtayyeh.
“From the camp of sacrifices, Jenin (refugee) camp, we say that the blood of the martyrs will not be in vain.. This struggle is a cumulative process of generation after generation and sacrifices above sacrifices. Jenin has embodied national unity on the ground.”
