English Translation of Abu Obaeida speech: 42 days of Battle Al Aqsa Flood
In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Permission is given to those who fight because they have been wronged, and God is able to grant them victory (Al-Qur'an Surah Al Hajj, ayah 39). Praise be to God, the supporter of the mujahideen and the humiliator of the arrogant tyrants. May blessings and peace be upon our Prophet, the martyr, the Mujahid, and upon his family, his companions, and those who waged his jihad. After that, oh sons of our great people everywhere, oh heroic mujahideen and mighty fighters. Our Islamic and Arab nation, O free people of the world, may God’s peace, mercy, and blessings be upon you.
Forty-two days after the start of the Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood on the seventh of glorious October, the Mujahideen continue their defense operations and confront the invading Zionist forces that are penetrating into Gaza City from several axes, and are continuing their incursion into western Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun. In the northern Gaza Strip, during the last four days, Mujahideen were able to damage and destroy sixty-two Zionist military vehicles and put them out of service, which varied between tanks, vehicles, troop carriers, and bulldozers, by targeting them with anti-armor missiles of the Yassin 105 type, Shawag bombs, and guerrilla action bombs.
Mujahideen also targeted them with bombs, medium weapons, and weapons. Sniper gatherings and individuals from the enemy forces on foot or holed up in some buildings. Mujahideen plotted in two separate operations, three days before, to finish off at least nine Zionist soldiers outside their vehicles. Mujahideen also destroyed two enemy military locations northwest of Beit Lahia yesterday with anti-armor missiles, Also yesterday, the Mujahideen were able to destroy an apartment building where enemy special forces were hiding in Beit Hanoun, it was most prominently targeted with anti-fortified shells and individuals, which led to the killing and wounding of everyone holed up in it. The artillery also continues to pummel enemy concentrations in the areas of incursion or assembly areas inside and around Gaza with short-range missiles from Model stoning and mortar shells.
The artillery also targeted sites in the occupied cities, most notably Tel Aviv and Ashkelon, with missile barrages. While we are busy confronting the aggression and inflicting heavy losses on the lives of its soldiers, officers, and vehicles, the forces of the criminal enemy are busy killing civilians, including children, women, and safe citizens in their homes and places. Their whims continue to violate all sanctities and commit war crimes, including storming hospitals, health centers, and civil institutions in search of proof of false lies and imaginary leadership centers. Enemy soldiers, under the protection of columns of tanks, catapults, squadrons of aircraft, and marches, continue to bully the bodies of martyrs, the sick, the wounded, medical teams, captured children, and displaced civilians. We are in Martyr Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, after 42 days of battle, we confirm the following;
Firstly, the Mujahideen’s achievements in the field are the killing of the enemy’s officers and soldiers and the destruction of its vehicles and armor. Our Mujahideen pursue the enemy’s forces and vehicles from street to street, rally behind his forces, and deliver deadly blows against them, forcing them to retreat in some axes and constantly change their paths of movement. We have prepared ourselves for a long, continuous and bitter defense from all directions. Every time the occupation forces spend in Gaza, they incur continuous losses, with the power of God. We have documented and presented many operations targeting and destroying the enemy’s vehicles and targeting his soldiers, and we will show more of them successively, God Almighty willing.
Secondly, the corrupt criminal Netanyahu and his cowardly war leadership in the Shifa complex and Gaza hospitals are very ridiculous, which is an exciting matter. Ironically, they are looking for a mirage that indicates their inability and hollow arrogance, and the entry of the Nazi enemy forces with tanks into a medical complex to show off their strength and control is the greatest evidence of their failure and defeat. It is also a scandal for the entire global system of claimants of human rights and international law.
Thirdly, we salute the striking arms of our people and their fighters in the West Bank. And from the fighters of our nation who rose to engage in the Battle of Al-Aqsa Flood in an escalating and continuous action, and we call on them to escalate the painful strikes against this criminal Nazi enemy on all fronts and arenas. Every strike directed at the side of this enemy in its war against our people, and our people is a painful and effective strike that will make the enemy realize that it is fighting one nation, one Ummah. One rejects him and works to resist him and sweep him from our land and our sanctities(land).
Fourthly, we tell the public, the enemy who is being misled by his fascist government, that news of your dead soldiers in the field will reach you sooner or later, and they are much more than you expect. As for your prisoners, we wanted this issue to be a humanitarian issue. Among the motives and triggers of operations flood Al-Aqsa on the 7th of October is the attack of your extremist, criminal government on our prisoners in prisons. We have offered to complete an exchange deal since the beginning of the battle to resolve this humanitarian issue. We have tried and are struggling to preserve the lives of your prisoners. We succeeded sometimes and did not succeed at other times due to the barbaric bombing of your army, but we inform you because your leadership seems to have decided to make the fate of your captives loss and desepear, like Krone Arad, or murder, like Kakhshun Vaxman, or forgetfulness and neglect, like Shaul Arun and Hadar Golden.
In conclusion, O sons of our great people, peace be upon you. Peace be upon you for your patience, perseverance, and steadfastness in the face of tyranny. Peace be upon the souls of our martyrs, our innocent children, and our oppressed people. Peace be upon your souls, which will one day soar in the sky of our holiest and most remote land, liberated from the filth of your killers. Peace be upon your blood, which will curse every criminal murderer and every negligent, cowardly, and pretender. To humanity, peace be upon you, our great people, as you expose the hypocritical world with its lame laws, its one-eyed organizations, and its double standards. There is no victory except from God, the Mighty, the Wise, and it is a jihad of victory or martyrdom. Peace, mercy, and blessings of God be upon you.
