Third, we salute all the solidarity efforts carried out by organisations, Islamic and national events and protests everywhere, in accordance with their ability and position.

Fourth: We confirm that the Palestinian government headed by Ismail Haniyeh has spared no effort to support our brave prisoners in their battle, and made extensive efforts in this direction to reach this point.

Fifth: We call on Arab and Islamic countries and the international community and all legal and human rights organizations to adopt the cause of prisoners in the prisons of the occupation, and to actively pursue it in all international forums.

Sixth: We appreciate the significant role of all the local, Arab and international media without discrimination, which took an effective and responsible position in this fight by advocating for prisoners in their battle for dignity.
