Palestinian resistance engineers in Gaza uncover Israeli surveillance
devices hidden in power banks and hospital equipment, turning the tables on
espionage efforts.

Engineers from the Palestinian resistance security apparatus in Gaza have
uncovered concealed surveillance equipment planted by Israeli forces before
their withdrawal from Gaza City.

Citing the Al-Hares security platform, Al-Jazeera reported that a
sophisticated intelligence operation revealed camouflaged spying components
embedded in power bank phone chargers.

Al-Hares described the devices found today as a significant intelligence
asset, stating that they would support vital resistance projects and turn
Israeli plans into opportunities to strengthen the Resistance.

Earlier reports confirmed the seizure of spy equipment within a Gaza
hospital, which had been used to monitor civilian movements for potential
targeting.

Last December, Palinfo reported
<https://english.palinfo.com/news/2024/12/25/331125/> that the Palestinian
resistance security agency had seized Israeli spy devices in a hospital in
Gaza City.

According to Palinfo, at the time, a security official revealed that he
received information from a citizen of an abnormal “building stone” in one
of the hospitals in Gaza, which had been previously stormed by Israeli
forces.

After inspecting the room, it was discovered that the “building stone” had
been specially reshaped to hide a spy device connected to another device
inside the hospital’s perimeter, which was equipped with a hidden camera.
*Resistance Fighters Warned amid Ceasefire*

In light of the recent ceasefire agreement, Al-Hares issued security
advisories to Resistance fighters. It emphasized heightened caution, noting
that Israeli forces are gathering intelligence to update their target
database.

The platform urged Resistance members to avoid leaving critical positions
without adhering to strict security measures and to refrain from using
unsafe communication methods to prevent detection.

The ceasefire between the Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas and Israel
came into effect last Sunday. Its first phase will span 42 days, followed
by negotiations for subsequent phases.
*Israel’s Genocide*

The Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip, which began on October 7, 2023, has
led to a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented scale. As the death toll
among besieged and starved Palestinian civilians continues to rise daily,
Israel is currently facing charges of genocide against Palestinians before
the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

According to Gaza’s Ministry of Health, at least 47,035 Palestinians have
been killed, and 111,091 wounded in Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza
starting on October 7, 2023.

The toll is expected to rise further, with at least 11,000 people still
unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes across Gaza.

The war, which Palestinians call “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood,” began after a
military operation carried out by Hamas on Israeli territory. Israel
reports that 1,139 of its soldiers and civilians were killed during the
initial attack on October 7. However, Israeli media have raised concerns
that a significant number of Israeli casualties were caused by ‘friendly
fire’ during the assault.

Human rights organizations, both Palestinian and international, have
reported that the overwhelming majority of the casualties in Gaza are women
and children. The ongoing violence has also exacerbated an acute famine,
with thousands of children among the dead, highlighting the severity of the
humanitarian disaster.

The war has displaced nearly two million people from their homes across
Gaza, with the majority of the displaced forced into the already
overcrowded southern region of the Strip. The population in Gaza remains
trapped in the ongoing conflict, with little access to basic necessities
such as food, water, and medical care.
