GAZA: One Israeli male hostage was killed by his guard and two girls captives have been critically wounded in two separate incidents in Gaza, the spokesperson for Hamas’ armed al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Ubaida, mentioned on Monday (Aug 12).
Abu Ubaida blamed the incident on what he described as Israeli “massacres” towards Palestinians.
“The enemy authorities [Israel] bears full duty for these massacres and the ensuing reactions that have an effect on the lives of Zionist prisoners,” Abu Ubaida mentioned in a press release posted on Telegram.
He mentioned a committee has been fashioned to research, and findings shall be introduced later, including efforts are underway to avoid wasting the 2 wounded hostages.
It was the primary time Al-Qassam has mentioned its guards killed hostages. The group has usually attributed earlier killings of hostages to Israeli bombardment.
