First, on this occasion, we extend our warmest congratulations and appreciation to the Palestinian people, and to every Palestinian woman – the martyr, the prisoner, the wounded, the educator, the mother, the fighter, the displaced, and the refugee – for her steadfastness and resilience in the face of challenges and hardships. Palestinian women have always been, and remain, a beacon of hope for their people, and a symbol of unwavering strength and dignity in all circumstances. On this occasion, we note that the resilience of Palestinian women is embodied in their daily actions, their capacity for endurance and sacrifice, their protection of the family and society, and their strengthening of national identity and collective memory. What Palestinian women have offered in these difficult circumstances is legendary steadfastness, embodying the will of an entire people in the face of occupation and displacement, and affirming that the will to live and live with dignity cannot be broken.
