Freedom and Justice Party Statement on Assassination of Qassam Commander Ahmed Jaabari

Egypt Muslim Brotherhood’s political arm, the FJP, denounces Israeli cold-blooded killing of Qassam chief Jaabari in a ‘targeted’ airstrike that also slaughtered several civilians including a seven-year old girl.

The Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) strongly condemns the assassination by Israeli occupation forces of Qassam commander Ahmed Jaabari, a crime which should see a fast Arab and international response to stop a wave of similarly bloody massacres against the Palestinian people besieged in the Gaza Strip, and which are being used by the Israeli government for leverage in political conflicts raging within Israel.

The FJP believes that Israeli resumption of the policy of target killings against leaders of the Palestinian resistance movements confirms that the Israeli occupation wants to drag the whole region into instability, confusion and chaos, but Israel should be warned that the changes recently witnessed in the Arab region, especially in Egypt, cannot allow Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people to go unpunished as in the past.

Further, the FJP offers sincere condolences to the leaders of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas and the Palestinian people for the martyrdom of the great warrior Ahmed Jaabari, who was one of the main architects of the deal which secured the release of more than a thousand Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the soldier Gilad Shalit.
