The Hamas Strategy That Kept Israeli Prisoners Alive

Can leadership like this really be defeated?

Listen to what an Israeli soldier says — one who was held captive in Gaza.

He says:

The al-Qassam Brigades’ “Unit al-Zil” (Shadow Unit) organized protests against Hamas and the resistance movement.

These protests took place on March 25 this year.

We, the Israeli prisoners, were moved during those protests. The marches began in Beit Lahia (in the north), passed through Beit Hanoun, reached Gaza City, and then continued south to Khan Younis.

Those demonstrations, which appeared to be against Hamas, made Israelis very happy. Israeli media presented them as a success — but in reality, they were all part of a plan created by the al-Qassam Brigades themselves.

During these protests, Israeli prisoners were secretly transferred from north to south — right under the watchful eyes of Israeli drones and intelligence systems. The Israelis celebrated the protests, unaware of what was really happening.

The soldier, who was released just two days ago, continues:

“We never thought the transfer from north to south would work — especially with spy drones flying above us. But they couldn’t recognize us.”

“The most surprising part,” he said, “was that the Qassam fighters told us to lead the protest. They taught us Arabic slogans and even carried us on their shoulders while we chanted against the resistance — and their own people repeated those chants behind us.”

“In this way, we reached Khan Younis safely — right before the eyes of Israeli intelligence, yet they never realized who we were.”
