The Palestinian Popular Resistance Committee (PRC) has announced the appointment of Sheikh Zuhair Qaisi as its Secretary General to replace Kamal Alnaireb, who was assassinated along with four Committee leaders on August 18. In a letter to the Committee’s members and leadership, which was obtained by Arabs Today, the new Secretary General confirmed that the group will continue its resistance against the Israel occupation. “We will follow our Prophet’s path, until we liberate our land, or die in its name. That is our promise.” Qaisi reaffirmed the group’s commitment to Islam and jihad and announced a restructure, to help the brigade recover from the devastating August attack.
