Hamas threatens towards Israel: ‘Gaza will become a cemetery for your soldiers’
Hamas has the remaining Israeli hostages in their own words spread over the neighborhoods of Gaza City. The Israeli offensive in the city will therefore mean that no hostage will return to Israel, the threat of the military branch of Hamas, the Al-Qassam Brigades. “As long as Netanyahu decides to kill them, Hamas will not take their lives into account,” it sounds.
The hostages will undergo the same fate as Ron Arad, Hamas threatens. Arad crashed in Lebanon in 1986 with a fighter jet. He was then imprisoned, but his fate remains unknown to this day. Hamas also states that it has hidden “thousands of obstacles and explosives” in Gaza City. “Gaza will be a cemetery for your soldiers,” it sounds.
Israel started on Monday with a controversial ground offensive in Gaza city. According to the government, the goal is to defeat Hamas and to free all hostages, although the relatives of the hostages fear just before their fate. There are still 48 hostages in the Gaza Strip, of which 20 would still be alive.
