The Israeli military on Sunday released footage showing what it says is a Hamas terrorist publicly executing a Palestinian man in Gaza City, i24News reported.
The incident, which occurred over the weekend, was described by the IDF as a rare glimpse into Hamas’s brutal tactics to maintain control over the local population.
General Ghassan Alian, head of the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), shared the video and issued a statement directly addressing Gaza residents.
“Hamas, terrorists, and criminals are killing you and do not care about your lives,” he said. He likened the group’s rule to that of a dictator and accused it of exploiting civilians to hold onto power.
Alian called the execution a “desperate and failed attempt to sow fear” and maintain the group’s dominance in the enclave.
No details were provided about the identity of the victim or the circumstances surrounding the execution.
The release comes as Israeli forces intensify operations in Gaza, particularly in Jabalia and Khan Yunis, pushing into areas not previously reached.
