News - Yemen: The Joint Meeting Parties (JMP) have expressed their support for the Palestinian resistance's efforts in the Al-Aqsa Storm Battle against the Zionist enemy entity, and they are calling for solidarity with it.

In a statement, the joint parties commended the courageous Palestinian operation, emphasizing that it represents the righteous path that all jihad movements in the axis of resistance should follow.

They urge the people of the Arab and Islamic world to unite in solidarity with the Palestinian resistance factions and provide their support in this significant jihadist struggle against the Zionist enemy.

Palestinians have launched their most large-scale operation against Israel in years, with a surprise offensive that involved fighters crossing into Israeli-occupied territories and a substantial rocket barrage from the Gaza Strip.

Reports indicate that resistance groups have captured five Israeli soldiers, according to media sources in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Red alert warning sirens were activated in Tel Aviv, Sde Boker, Arad, and Dimona in the south as explosions were heard by residents on Saturday. In al-Quds, rocket sirens sounded followed by the sound of explosions. 

Hamas' armed wing said more than 5,000 rockets were fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel on Saturday, declaring it had started "Operation al-Aqsa Flood". 

Gaza-based Islamic Jihad said its fighters have joined the operation as Hamas called on Palestinians everywhere to fight and on resistance groups in Lebanon also to join the fighting against Israel. 

"We decided to put an end to all the crimes of the occupation, their time for rampaging without being held accountable is over," Hamas said. "We announce Operation al-Aqsa Flood and we fired, in the first strike of 20 minutes, more than 5,000 rockets."

Israel has escalated its violence against Palestinians recently, particularly after a right-wing cabinet led by Benjamin Netanyahu came to power.

More than 200 Palestinians have been killed this year in the occupied Palestinian territories and Gaza. The majority of these fatalities have been recorded in the West Bank.

The United Nations said 2023 is the deadliest year for Palestinians in the West Bank since it began keeping track of fatalities almost two decades ago.

Previously, 2022 had been the deadliest year with 150 Palestinians killed, of whom 33 were minors, according to the UN.
