Hamas has executed 32 Palestinians amid fierce clashes in recent days with groups opposed to the Islamist group, Reuters reported on Monday.
The news agency cited a “Palestinian security source” as saying that they belonged to a Gaza City “gang.” The official also said that six Hamas supporters were killed in the violence, claiming it was a targeted operation against members of a “dangerous gang affiliated with a family in Gaza City.” Twenty-four people were arrested and 30 others were wounded, the official said.
Video circulating on social media Tuesday appeared to show masked Hamas gunmen publicly executing men in what CNN reported was the Sabra neighborhood in western Gaza City, in an incident that likely took place after the ceasefire with Israel entered into force last Friday.
