IDF releases video it says shows Hamas looting supplies from Gazan civilians

The Israel Defense Forces publishes video of what it says shows Hamas terrorists apparently taking supplies from Gazan civilians.

The IDF’s Arabic-language spokesperson says the Hamas operatives take the supplies and load them onto their vehicle, beat the civilians, and then drive to a location known to be linked to the terror group.

The military says the images were filmed in Gaza City’s Shuja’iyya neighborhood. It does not say when the incident occurred.

“The Hamas terrorist organization deprives the residents of Gaza of food and equipment and delivers them to its members and terrorist needs,” the IDF says. “Hamas leaders do not care about the people of Gaza and their suffering. Hamas is the enemy of the people in Gaza.”

Israel has long maintained that Hamas is keeping supplies from an increasingly desperate civilian population amid a growing humanitarian crisis in the enclave.
