DUBAI: Hamas mentioned it had data that Israel meant to hold out a hostage rescue operation much like one carried out in Gaza’s Nuseirat camp in June and threatened to “neutralize” the captives if any such motion happened, based on an inner assertion seen by Reuters on Wednesday (Dec 4).
Within the assertion dated Nov 22, Hamas advised its operatives to not think about what the repercussions of following the directions is perhaps and mentioned it held Israel answerable for the destiny of the hostages.
The assertion, which a senior Hamas supply advised Reuters was circulated to its factions by the intelligence unit of the group’s navy wing Izz el-Deen al-Qassam Brigades, didn’t say when any Israeli operation was anticipated to happen.
