IDF shows Hamas fuel tanks amid claims of Gaza shortages

The IDF Arabic-language account on X, formerly Twitter, shares a post with two aerial images purportedly showing 12 oil tanks hidden in the ground near the Rafah crossing, in the south of the Gaza Strip.

“This is what over half a million liters of diesel oil looks like,” writes IDF Arabic spokesman Avichay Adraee, “while Hamas keeps claiming it does not have enough fuel to support hospitals and food production.”

“Hamas-ISIS steals this fuel from civilians and transfers it to its tunnels, rocket launchers, and leaders. This is what Hamas’s list of priorities looks like,” he continues.

“Residents of Gaza, the address for your complaints is not Israel. It’s Yahya Sinwar, Muhammad Deif and other Hamas-ISIS members who pushed Gaza into this abyss.”
