GAZA, (PIC)– The Palestinian government in Gaza congratulated the Egyptian people and revolutionists after the announcement of Hosni Mubarak’s resignation and wished them more progress, prosperity and a new era of freedom. In a press release on Friday, the government hailed the Egyptian people for their steadfastness and determination to make better future not only for them but for the whole region. It expressed hope that Egypt could restore its pioneering role in supporting the issues of the Arab and Islamic nations, especially the Palestinian cause against the Zio-American schemes in the region. For his part, Palestinian premier Ismail Haneyya said in a brief statement that the Egyptian revolution has made a new history for the Arab nation. “Egypt is writing new history for the nation, and Gaza siege is reeling,” Haneyya added. The Palestinian legislative council also lauded the departure of Mubarak from power as a historic victory for both the Egyptian people and the Palestinian cause. Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri described the removal of Mubarak from power as an initial victory for the Egyptian revolution, stressing that his Movement stands by the Egyptian people and their just demands. “We congratulate the Egyptian people on this outcome and consider it a victory for their will and sacrifices, and the start of a new era in Egypt and the region,” the spokesman said in a press statement to the Palestinian information center (PIC). In a separate statement issued by its information office, Hamas Movement congratulated the great people of Egypt on their successful revolution and their achievement of their goals. “We mourn the martyrs of the Egyptian revolution who irrigated this great victory with their pure blood, and we wish all wounded heroes a speedy recovery,” Hamas underlined. In a related incident, thousands of Palestinians took to the streets in the Gaza Strip on Friday night to celebrate Mubarak’s resignation. Cars drove through the streets honking their horns and Hamas resistance fighters fired their guns in the air. Many Gazans all over the Strip distributed sweets and candies and exchanged congratulations on this event, according to PIC reporters. |
