Muslim scholars and Palestinian factions have once again strongly condemned the normalization deals between some Arab states and Israel. In an international conference in the Gaza Strip, they also stressed that the deals have not undermined the Palestinians' will to resist against Israeli occupation.
Muslim scholars along with leaders of Palestinian factions in the blockaded Gaza Strip slammed the normalization deals between the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Israel describing them as an all-out treason.
During an international conference in Gaza the Muslim scholars said that normalizing ties with Israel is an unforgivable crime.
Participants from several Muslim countries attended the event via satellite link. The US brokered normalization deals were signed at the White House on September 15.
Palestinian resistance groups say the deals won't undermine their will to fight occupation.
Later in the day the leaders of Palestinian factions attended a digital festival due to the coronavirus pandemic to mark the 33rd anniversary of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad movement.
The movement organized the digital festival entitled “Jerusalem is our destination" through social media platforms. Ziyad al-Nakhala, the secretary general of Islamic Jihad addressed the attendees via satellite link.
During his speech al-Nakhala slammed the normalization deals and vowed to continue all forms of resistance against the Israeli regime.
Palestinians consider normalization with Israel as a betrayal of their cause and a blow to their quest for freedom.
Observers say that normalizing ties with the Israeli regime will only encourage Tel Aviv to further violate the rights of the oppressed Palestinian people.
