He added that this step “is a gesture that Palestine does not forget those who stand by and support its just cause, and it is a message to Arab artists to work for their first Arab cause, the cause of Palestine.”

He continued, “The late Hatem Ali believed that the issue was the issue of all Arabs and fought to convey the voice of Palestinian truth and expose the crimes that were committed against our people during the Nakba,” stressing that “Hatem Ali was a model for the committed Arab artist, and his early departure was a great tragedy for all art lovers.” As for supporters of the cause. ”
