The Israeli occupation, in addition, continues to take measures to liquidate the Palestinian cause, in coordination with the US administration which is promoting the deal of the century which aimed to abolish the issue of the Palestinian refugees by ending UNRWA.
On the occasion of the World Refugee Day, Hamas reiterated that the issue of the Palestinian refugees is the fairest cause, calling for the implementation of all international resolutions related to them.

Salah also said of refugees, that they “must have representation in the Palestinian institutions which is proportionate to their number.”
Palestinian refugees were displaced from their homes in 1948 by Zionist gangs using systematic terror, killings, destruction, and depopulation.
