On January 7, 2025, Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas) TV aired archival footage of assassinated senior Hams leaders inspecting a rocket manufacturing workshop in the Gaza Strip. The men are seen inscribing rockets and packing them with explosives. Hamas leader Isamil Haniyeh, who was assassinated in Tehran on July 31, 2024, said that Hamas is "writing the annals of history and establishing the glory of the Islamic nation and this people." Saleh Al-Arouri, deputy chairman of Hamas political bureau, who was assassinated in Beirut on January 2, 2024, said that "this is a reinvigorated generation that took up arms is fully prepared. […] Our Lord will grant us victory and martyrdom together with you." Yahya Sinwar, who was killed in Gaza on September 16, 2024, Hamas leader in Gaza at the time and who succeeded Haniyeh as Hamas leader, said that Hamas's number one priority in Gaza is to "draw up the plan for liberation and complete the preparations for it."

Ismail Haniyeh: "In these very modest places we are writing the annals of history and establishing the glory of the Islamic nation and this people."

Saleh Al-Arouri: "I see that this is a reinvigorated generation that took up arms and is fully prepared. It lives in places of danger, and it believes in its cause and its message. It is prepared to pay the price, [and as the Quran says:] 'They see it as distant, but we see it as near,' Allah willing. The Lord of the Universe will reward you. Our Lord will grant us – together with you – victory and martyrdom, inshallah."

Yahya Sinwar: "Here in Gaza, our number one priority is to draw up the plan for liberation and complete the preparations for it."
