Hamas is intensifying its crackdown on rival Palestinian groups in Gaza, as the militant organization attempts to solidify its dominance following a two-year conflict with Israel. A video has reportedly shown Hamas fighters executing rivals, signaling the group’s intent to assert its authority in the region. The incident comes amid a fragile truce between Hamas and Israel, which was brokered following the exchange of hostages in Gaza for Israeli captives held in the territory. This move is seen by some analysts as an attempt to eliminate potential threats to Hamas’s leadership and consolidate power within the group.
The video, which has been circulating on social media, depicts Hamas fighters carrying out executions of rival Palestinian factions. These acts are believed to be part of a broader campaign to eliminate opposition and strengthen Hamas’s grip on the territory. The continued violence raises concerns about the stability of the region and the potential for renewed conflict. Experts warn that such actions could undermine the fragile peace efforts and lead to further bloodshed.
