Overview

• At least 27 people were killed in Gaza City after days of fighting between Hamas forces and the Dughmush clan near the Jordanian Field Hospital and in Tel al-Hawa, according to medical sources cited by multiple outlets.
• CNN verified video from Gaza City’s al Sabra neighborhood showing masked fighters executing eight blindfolded men in public; the timing is unconfirmed, and a Palestinian rights group condemned it as an extrajudicial killing.
• Hamas has recalled roughly 7,000 internal security personnel and warned it will “cleanse” the territory of outlaws and collaborators, with its Radaa force announcing sweeps and arrests in Gaza City.
• The Dughmush family denies collaborating with Israel and accuses Hamas of indiscriminate targeting, reporting killings, intimidation and home burnings during the crackdown.
• Analysts say the internal unrest threatens deployment of a proposed International Stability Force and could delay rebuilding, with Israel likely to maintain positions until security conditions change under the current plan.
