Fatah official: “Fatah has never relinquished the rifle” and “participates” in Hamas’ war on Israel
Fatah Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi: “Who said that Fatah is not participating in the fighting (i.e., Hamas’ terror war on Israel)? Who gave you this information and misled you that we are not participating? ... All the Palestinian organizations in the West Bank are fighting and coordinating among themselves on the ground... How many Martyrs are from Fatah? ... Fatah has never relinquished the rifle, and it has never relinquished the struggle.”
