Hamas Crackdown: Verified Public Killings and Clan Battles Shake Gaza Truce

Rights groups warn the campaign threatens required disarmament under the US-brokered plan.

Overview

  • BBC and Reuters verified videos showing masked gunmen shooting eight bound men in a Gaza City square as crowds watched.
  • Hamas-linked security units, including Radaa and Sahm, said they targeted collaborators and outlaws, as analysts tied the Arrow Unit to the operations.
  • Hamas has recalled roughly 7,000 security personnel and redeployed across Gaza following Israeli pullbacks, declaring a general mobilization to purge rivals.
  • Heavy fighting with the Doghmush clan in Gaza City left reported death tolls ranging from about 27 to more than 50, with unverified witness claims that attackers used ambulances.
  • President Trump said Hamas has a temporary policing role but vowed to disarm it if necessary, as Israel received four more hostages’ remains and Palestinian rights groups condemned the killings as extrajudicial.
