Hamas command in north Gaza destroyed, Israel says

6 January 2024

The Israeli army says it has "completed the dismantling" of Hamas's command structure in the northern Gaza Strip.

Army spokesman Daniel Hagari told reporters that Palestinian militants are now operating in the area only sporadically and "without commanders".

He said Israel had killed around 8,000 militants in north Gaza. The BBC cannot independently verify this number.

The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) are now focused on dismantling Hamas in south and central Gaza, he said.

First, nobody is suggesting Israel should kill prisoners of war. That’s something that terrorists like Hamas do. Kidnapping, rape, child murders, driving nails into prisoners before killing them. That’s Hamas and that’s what Hamas’ supporters endorse.

Second, every Hamas terrorist who planned or participated in the October 7 crimes against humanity either needs to immediately surrender or be put down like the rabid animals they are.

You aren’t really suggesting that Israel has to capture and jail Hamas’ child murderers are you?

That occurred during battle. These were purposeful torture of female Israelis. Please stop defending Hamas. This is not the place for it. Do you defend these actions by Hamas?

“The Times viewed photographs of one woman’s corpse that emergency responders discovered in the rubble of a besieged kibbutz with dozens of nails driven into her thighs and groin.

The Times also viewed a video, provided by the Israeli military, showing two dead Israeli soldiers at a base near Gaza who appeared to have been shot directly in their vaginas.”

Your defense of Hamas is appalling.

Into an Israeli female. Do you think they did that before or after they murdered her? And does the distinction even matter, or is it simply more rabid acts by Hamas?

And are you really comparing the deaths of three hostages in the fog of war to Hamas’ intentional murder of 1,000+ civilians? The murder and mutilation and men, women and children in their homes and cars, or at a concert? You really think those things are equivalent?

And on edit—“the nailing happened to those who were quickly killed.” What the fuck!!! Hamas’ cowardly criminals DROVE NAILS INTO SOMEONE.

Because they are cowards. Cowards who hide behind civilians and rape and murder women and children. The lowest of the low. No better than any other rapist or child killer.

Your comment that the nailing doesn’t matter suggests you endorse the barbarism and cowardice that is at the core of every Hamas coward or supporter. I’ll bid you a good day and a good stay.
