Hussam al-Astal, a militia commander of the al-Majida clan in Khan Younes, burned a Hamas flag on camera and spoke insultingly about the terrorist organization that rules Gaza. The video was published on Monday, November 3.

“Hamas – you are liars, you have no more honor. Hamas is over forever, even in history. I know where you are, where you go and when you return. I will enter your tents, I am here and I exist. I will eat you alive, dogs. Hamas is no more, we are the future of the sector – whether you like it or not,” says Al-Astal against the backdrop of a burning flag.
He recorded the video after Hamas announced that it had carried out a “precise operational action” in the south of the city of Khan Younes, during which five militants belonging to the Al-Astly group were detained.
Hamas described the militia as “suspicious and destabilizing security.” During the raid, weapons, large sums of money and other equipment were seized, which, according to the organization, were intended to finance “sabotage actions against the Palestinian resistance and the internal security of the front.” In addition, 5 people were arrested.
Hamas threatened: “Anyone who tries to shake stability or act in the interests of Israel will not find a place with us. We will continue a decisive and uncompromising fight against anyone who betrays the people and homeland.”
Recent events in Khan Younes and the wider Strip underscore the high level of internal tension in Gaza, where reports of internal disintegration and clashes between armed factions are mounting amid chaos following two years of war.
