⭕ Call to our people for broad participation in the National Day for the
Recovery of Martyrs' Bodies
------------------------------

25-08-2026

August 25, 2026, Ramallah – Palestinian Prisoner support organizations, the
National Campaign to Retrieve Martyrs' Bodies, and national forces
reiterate their call for broad public participation tomorrow, Wednesday,
August 26, in the national events commemorating the National Day for the
Recovery of the Bodies of Palestinian and Arab Martyrs held by the Israeli
occupation, which falls on August 27 of each year.

The organizations, the campaign, and national forces emphasized that broad
participation in these events represents a clear expression of popular and
national solidarity with the families of the martyrs and embodies the
commitment to their legitimate right to recover the bodies of their loved
ones and bury them in a manner befitting their human and national dignity.

The national campaign, along with national institutions and forces,
reiterated that broad participation is not merely attendance at an event,
but rather a unified national stance and support for the families of the
martyrs who continue to endure the pain of loss and the bitterness of
waiting. It is also a clear message that the issue of the martyrs' remains
will remain present in the public and national consciousness, and that our
people will not accept their continued detention, nor will they allow this
crime to become a normalized reality or an imposed fact over time.

The campaign emphasized that the issue of the martyrs' remains is not just
a matter for families awaiting their sons, but a matter of national rights
and human dignity. Recovering the martyrs' remains and uncovering the fate
of the missing and forcibly disappeared constitutes a national and
humanitarian responsibility, and a steadfast demand that cannot be
relinquished or extinguished by the passage of time.

It affirmed that this right will remain until the last body is recovered,
the fate of every missing person is revealed, and the suffering of the
families who have been waiting for their sons for years is brought to an
end.

Therefore, the prisoners' institutions, the National Campaign, and the
national forces call upon all our people to participate widely in the
planned events, in loyalty to the martyrs, in support of their families,
and to renew the pledge that their names will not be forgotten, and that
their right to dignity, burial, and the return of their remains will remain
a unifying national cause.

👉This is an additional call from the National Campaign and the prisoners'
institutions to journalists, media professionals, activists, and social
media influencers to give the issue of the withheld bodies of the martyrs
the widest possible coverage and attention, to highlight the stories of the
martyrs and their families, and the crime of withholding their bodies and
depriving their families of their right to bid them farewell and bury them.
It emphasizes that media and digital voices play a fundamental role in
keeping this issue alive in the public consciousness, breaking the silence
surrounding it, and transforming it into a Palestinian, Arab, and
international public opinion issue, thus contributing to exposing this
crime and demanding an end to the withholding of the bodies and their
return to their families.

We have names... We have a homeland
Free the bodies of the imprisoned martyrs... Free the imprisoned martyrs
