Hamas's "night Of The Long Knives" In The Gaza Strip Continues

The mediators are speechless.

Since the IDF's withdrawal from parts of the Gaza Strip, Hamas has waged a campaign of arrests and killings of collaborators and members of hostile clans. The massacre has not resonated in the media, and mediators are not responding to it, wrote Details.

This was reported on Tuesday, October 14 by the Can-11 website. A Hamas security source told the SAFA news agency that the internal security unit has launched an operation to catch "agents and lawbreakers" throughout the Gaza Strip. This is what Hamas calls those who collaborated with Israel and members of clans hostile to it. Hamas has reportedly called on those who have not yet been detained to surrender to the authorities.

The source said that in the central Gaza Strip, an internal security unit arrested "a group of lawbreakers involved in shooting at Hamas members and the organization's security personnel" and handed them over to the relevant authorities for further proceedings.

The details are provided by the knowledgeable Telegram channel Abu Ali, which regularly monitors media and social networks. According to the channel, as part of its "pre-clearance" strategy, Hamas managed to get the Al-Majayda clan in Khan Younis to announce that it had begun collecting illegal weapons from its members and handing them over to Hamas.

That is, Hamas is disarming the Al-Mujaydah clan and the Gaza Strip, but not disarming itself... This action is a discouraging signal to all residents of the Gaza Strip: Hamas has regained control of the Gaza Strip and has no intention of going anywhere - let no one be under any illusions.

High-ranking Hamas leader Mahmoud Mardawi was even clearer: "Whoever thinks that Hamas' agreement to establish an 'independent Palestinian committee of technocrats and experts' to govern the Gaza Strip means that criminals can get away with it is mistaken. He does not understand the difference between yielding to Israeli tyranny and relinquishing power and responsibility.

"That is, Mardaoui is in effect admitting that Hamas will run the Gaza Strip regardless of any "technocratic government." He makes no secret that agreeing to cede power is only aimed at creating the false impression that Hamas is relinquishing power," Abu Ali commented.

The BBC reports that Hamas has returned some 7,000 fighters of its "security forces" to areas of the Gaza Strip from which the Israeli army withdrew after the agreement with Israel. The terrorist group also appointed five new "governors" in areas of the Strip. All of them served in the IDF's military wing, some having previously commanded units.

In addition, Hamas announced a "general mobilization" of its fighters. In texts and phone calls, the group calls for "cleansing Gaza of bandits and Israeli collaborators."

"We will not leave Gaza at the mercy of thieves and militias backed by Israel," a Hamas leader abroad told the BBC. - Our weapons are legitimate and designed to resist the occupation. We will keep them as long as the occupation continues."

Maariv journalist Avi Ashkenazi reports that a series of armed clashes between Hamas fighters and local clans have already taken place across the Gaza Strip as early as yesterday, October 10. In particular, Hamas forces surrounded a neighborhood of one of the rebel clans, the Jaamish, in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza. Schools and high-rise buildings were evacuated, and a large number of masked armed militants were deployed in the area.

According to testimonies from Gaza, Hamas enforcers, have already begun brutally cracking down on "Israeli collaborators." Videos have surfaced on social media from Gaza showing Hamas operatives breaking the limbs of Palestinians suspected of collaborating with Israel and brutalizing them. The Hamas-affiliated Palestinian Quds network said the group had already arrested 17 "wanted men," including the deputy commander of a militia in the northern sector.

Israeli security services have called for Palestinian clans and factions fighting against Hamas not to be left to fend for themselves. There are fears that Hamas will use the truce to carve out clans that have cooperated with Israel. The question of their fate was not raised in Trump's plan to end the Gaza war and the agreement based on it.

More to the point. Such Hamas activity even now does not contradict Trump's plan. Recall that at a press conference at the airplane ramp, on the eve of his flight to Israel, Trump was asked about the redeployment of Hamas security forces. "We have given Hamas temporary authorization to operate in the Gaza Strip," the president said. - "We want to, make sure there's no crime there and overall security, I think it's going to be fine."

Abu Ali wrote about the same thing. When another reporter asked Trump if he was embarrassed that Hamas was rearming and shooting at its political opponents under the guise of Palestinian police. "What would you like to say to Hamas?" - the journalist asked? Trump replied, "We gave Hamas permission to do that for a limited period of time - to restore order."
