Hamas Condemns Barbaric Ben-Gvir for Execution Threats Against Palestinian Captives

The Palestinian resistance organization Hamas has strongly condemned threats issued by Israeli Minister Ben-Gvir, who has suggested executing Palestinian captives. This denunciation follows a video posted by Ben-Gvir, in which he is seen standing over a line of bound abductees lying face down.

Mahmoud Mardawi, a senior figure within Hamas, asserted that Ben-Gvir’s actions represent “a significant escalation in his aggressive stance towards Palestinian detainees,” further emphasizing his administration’s ongoing disregard for international legal norms designed to protect prisoner rights.

Mardawi highlighted that the Israeli minister’s actions extend beyond mere verbal provocations, representing a wider pattern of official incitement against the Palestinian population.

He emphasized that these actions contribute to the normalization of violence and bloodshed against Palestinians, reflecting a broader campaign of aggression and dehumanization backed by the occupying Tel Aviv regime.

Footage circulated on Friday via his Telegram channel shows Ben-Gvir speaking directly to the camera, gesturing towards a group of detainees lying facedown before an Israeli flag.

An Israeli minister and head of the Otzma Yehudit party has announced that Palestinian captives are being detained under the most basic conditions.

Israeli Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has made a controversial call for the execution of Palestinian prisoners, advocating for the death penalty during a visit to a prison. In a video he shared, Ben-Gvir is seen standing over a group of Palestinian detainees, who are lying on the ground with their hands bound.

In a recent development, a Palestinian human rights group focused on prisoner advocacy has denounced the Israeli military for allegedly carrying out on-site executions of Palestinian detainees after their capture in the Gaza Strip.

The Asra Media Office has released a statement indicating that the remains of several detainees recently repatriated to Gaza bore clear indications of torture. These injuries included restraints, burns, and other wounds, pointing towards the severe mistreatment they suffered.

Reports suggest that certain individuals have even been struck by vehicles.

These actions have been described as systematic crimes directed at individuals taken from Gaza.

A statement has condemned Israel’s policies regarding the treatment of deceased Palestinians, specifically criticizing the practice of keeping bodies in morgue freezers and interring them in what are termed “cemeteries of numbers.” The statement claims these actions are intended to humiliate both the living and the deceased within the Palestinian community.

The Asra Media Office has asserted that these actions constitute a significant violation of international humanitarian law.

A Palestinian prisoners’ advocacy organization has denounced Ben-Gvir’s recent comments, labeling them as “blatant incitement” and indicative of a “criminal mindset” prevalent within the Israel Prison Service.
