Huge march in Gaza in support of al-Aqsa

Thousands of people took to the streets of a rainy Gaza Strip on Friday afternoon, in a march organised by Islamic Jihad.

In a speech at the march, Islamic Jihad leader Ahmed Mudallal thanked the crowds for "coming out to confirm the choice of resistance, one that Mu'taz Hijazi picked yesterday."

"Palestinian authorities have no choice but to stop negotiations with the occupier and to come together under the banner of the resistance."
