Gaza (Quds News Network)- Hamas has reported a serious incident, where 
guards turned on Israeli prisoners, resulting in one death and two 
critical injuries. Abu Ubaida, the spokesman for Al-Qassam Brigades, 
held Netanyahu responsible for the incident, which was apparently driven 
by the massacres committed by the Israeli army in Gaza.

In a brief statement, Abu Ubaida announced that: “In two separate 
incidents, two fighters assigned to guard enemy prisoners opened fire on 
a Zionist prisoner, killing him instantly, in addition to injuring two 
female prisoners critically. Efforts are underway to save their lives.”

“The enemy government bears full responsibility for the massacres and 
the resulting reactions that affect the lives of Zionist prisoners. A 
committee has been formed to investigate the details, and the findings 
will be announced later”, he added.

This incident marks a significant departure from previous announcements 
by Hamas, where they reported the deaths of Israeli captives due to 
Israeli military actions rather than actions by resistance fighters.

The timing of the announcement and the unprecedented nature of the 
incident have raised concerns about escalating tensions and the 
potential for similar occurrences if Israel continues its killing spree 
in Gaza.

On February 10th, the Al-Qassam Brigades announced the death of two 
Israeli prisoners and the injury of eight others, some of whom were in 
critical condition, as a result of continuous Israeli bombardment on the 
Gaza Strip.

Later, Abu Ubaida confirmed that three of the eight injured Israeli 
prisoners had succumbed to their wounds from the airstrikes on Gaza.
