We send greetings to them and to their families and to the prisoner leaders Marwan Barghouti, [Ahmad] Sa’adat and [Fouad] Al-Shubaki, greetings and appreciation, and Allah willing, there will be no peace and the occupier will enjoy no security as long as our prisoners are in the occupation’s prisons.”
