Israel has released video evidence purportedly showing a Palestinian man being executed by Hamas operatives within Gaza City. The footage, which was shared by the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) on its Arabic-language Facebook page, depicts what Israeli officials describe as a brutal act. Major General Ghassan Alian, head of COGAT, stated that the execution is part of a pattern of violence employed by Hamas to maintain control. No information regarding the victim’s identity or the circumstances surrounding the execution has been provided. The released video is intended to highlight Hamas’s alleged disregard for Palestinian lives, according to Israeli authorities. COGAT is responsible for coordinating civilian affairs in Gaza, Judea, and Samaria.
