The Islamic Jihad resistance movement has announced that it is completely ready to defend the Palestinians against any Israeli aggressions.

"The Palestinian resistance has been supplied with better means to counter any Israeli aggressions," Islamic Jihad's deputy general secretary, Ziad Nakhla, said on Saturday.

Nakhla further highlighted the significance of unifying the Palestinian armed resistance movements, including Jihad and Hamas, against Israel.

Meanwhile, a group of Palestinian demonstrators gathered in the northern Gaza Strip on Saturday to protest the illegal confiscation of their land by Israeli forces for the creation of a 'security buffer zone' along the northern border between Gaza and Israel.

The demonstrators also said that they were protesting the ongoing siege and attacks against the residents and their property.

During the demonstration, Israeli troops opened fire on the protesters, wounding five Palestinians and an international peace activist.
