DOHA, (PIC)-- Palestinian premier Ismail Haneyya said the Emir of Qatar Sheikh Hamad Al-Thani promised him to reconstruct what was destroyed by the Israeli occupation during the war on the Gaza Strip.
"With openhanded and generous support from Emir of Qatar Sheikh Hamad bin-Khalifa Al Thani, the destroyed homes in Gaza will be reconstructed and a lot of projects will be established," premier Haneyya said in his Friday khutba (sermon) in Mohamed bin-Abdulwahab Mosque in Doha.
Haneyya thanked Qatar and its leadership for supporting Gaza people for more than three years and hailed the Doha-based Al-Jazeera satellite channel for its positions in favor of the Palestinian cause.
The Palestinian leader also told the congregation about the dangers threatening the occupied city of Jerusalem and warned that the holy city is facing the most malicious Judaization campaign ever carried out since its occupation by the Zionists.
"I am not saying that as a media stunt, but honestly Jerusalem is in real danger, and I place this matter in your hand so that we can work together to save it," he added.
The premier also talked about the Israeli blockade on Gaza and urged the Qatari people to intensify their efforts to break it.
He also urged Egypt and the Arab and Islamic countries to come together to support Gaza in the face of Israel's siege and aggression.
