Hamas accuses Israel of ‘baseless lies’ over Bibas hostage family killing

Hamas accuses Israel of disseminating “baseless lies” regarding the killing of Shiri Bibas and her two small children Ariel and Kfir in captivity.

“The false allegations that the criminal [Israeli] occupation is disseminating about the death of the Bibas children at the hands of their captors are merely baseless lies and fabrications,” Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem says in a statement. The terror group has long said an Israeli airstrike killed the three members of the Bibas family.

Israel said forensic examinations showed that the captors had brutally killed the three with their bare hands and then tried to cover it up to make it look like they died in an airstrike.
