Yemen’s Ansarullah Hails Reconciliation between Syria, Hamas
The Ansarullah political bureau in a statement congratulated the reconciliation and described it as a move that will strengthen the axis of resistance in the region.
It said the resumption of ties between Hamas and Damascus will also serve the cause of Palestine, Al-Maseerah TV network reported.
The statement also referred to the recent developments in Palestine and hailed the heroic operations of Palestinian youths against the Zionist occupiers.
It went on to say that the enemy is incapable of breaking the resolve of the Palestinian nation and the resistance’s youths.
A high-ranking Palestinian delegation met Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus on Wednesday, in the first such visit in more than a decade as the two sides seek to revitalize their ties.
Deputy chief of the Hamas political bureau in the besieged Gaza Strip, Khalil al-Hayya, who headed the delegation, said the spirit of resistance was resurrected within the Arab world following their historic visit to Damascus.
Such rhetoric prompted the US to react, in a sign of fear from a stronger “Axis of resistance” in the region.
"Our meeting with al-Assad marked a glorious day today, and through it, we will resume our presence in Syria and working with Damascus in support of our people and Syria’s stability," he said.
The Hamas official also reiterated that the resistance movement told President Assad that Hamas “will support Syria, its sovereignty, and territorial integrity and the Palestinian factions are against any aggression targeting Syrian soil.”
"The relations with Syria will give strength to the Axis of Resistance and to all the believers in the resistance," al-Hayya stressed, pointing out that "Hamas did not hear any opposition from any state that was informed of its decision to reconcile with Syria, including Turkey and Qatar."
Meanwhile, al-Assad underlined the importance of unity among Palestinians as a source of strength in the face of the Israeli aggression and for regaining their rights. He asserted that Syria will always remain in support of resistance against Israel. Members of the delegation expressed appreciation for Syria’s historic support to Palestinians, describing it as their safe haven during hardships.
The visit comes after non-public negotiations between Hamas and the Syrian leadership were mediated by the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, in which the attendees discussed the disagreements that led to a decade-long rupture in ties.
