According to a tweet from the IDF, Gaza civilians claim that the masked men seen beating and detaining them in the video are members of Hamas. The Israeli military said the crime the civilians allegedly committed was “attempting to break into a warehouse where humanitarian aid is being stored.”
The video begins with a masked man spray-painting the word “Thief” in Arabic on the backs of blindfolded people. In the background, masked men can be seen beating the blindfolded man with the spray-painted word with sticks. The blindfolded man can be heard screaming in pain. A second man can be seen being hit in the same way.
“They are [Hamas] “They are thieves, thieves of humanity, corrupt and the truth is written, they are destined to disappear because terrorism is necessarily temporary,” IDF Arab spokesman Lt. Col. Avichai Adraei tweeted alongside the same graphic video.
