Videos Show Public Executions in Gaza After Ceasefire, Raising Fears for Peace Deal

Reports indicate Hamas is moving to reassert control over areas vacated by Israeli forces by targeting rival clans.

Overview

  • Footage circulating online appears to show about eight blindfolded men shot in public, with some gunmen wearing green headbands associated with Hamas.
  • Hamas described those killed as criminals and collaborators with Israel, a claim that has not been independently verified.
  • The videos surfaced shortly after a new ceasefire and peace deal took effect, following Israeli withdrawals from parts of the Strip.
  • Rival Palestinian clans condemned the killings as criminal, with reports of Hamas redeployments and clashes in Gaza City’s Shejaiya neighborhood.
  • Political fallout deepened as Israeli families protested that only four bodies from 28 hostages who died were returned, while President Trump was quoted as allowing Hamas temporary internal security authority.
