Gaza (QNN)- Al Jazeera has aired exclusive footage revealing the direct
involvement of Israeli intelligence in the assassination of a senior
security official in the Gaza Strip, using armed local collaborators
operating under real-time supervision.

According to the investigative report, Israeli intelligence directed an
assassination attempt on the morning of December 14, targeting a prominent
security leader in Gaza. The operation relied on gunmen affiliated with a
local militia and was carried out under live audio and visual supervision
from Israeli intelligence officers.

The investigation identified the target as Ahmad Abdul Bari Zamzam, known
as Abu al-Majd, the deputy director of the Internal Security Service in
Gaza’s central governorate.

Two gunmen from a militia led by Shawqi Abu Nuseira, a former officer in
the Palestinian Authority, carried out the operation. Israeli intelligence
selected and trained the assailants, according to testimony and video
evidence obtained by Al Jazeera.

The investigation revealed that Abu al-Majd directly supervised efforts to
dismantle Israeli-founded armed groups during and after the genocide. He
successfully infiltrated several of these groups inside the so-called
“Yellow Line” and persuaded multiple members to surrender.

The video recordings were obtained from a camera worn by one of the gunmen
during the attack. The footage shows that the assailants received training
in areas under Israeli military control, beyond the Yellow Line.

One image placed the second gunman inside the militia’s headquarters at
al-Azmi School in al-Mazraa area of central Gaza. Investigators said this
confirmed that both men entered Gaza from zones still controlled by Israeli
forces.

The detained gunman stated that on December 10 he met Abu Adham Nuseira,
who selected him and another gunman for the mission. Israeli forces then
transported them through the Kissufim crossing to meet an Israeli
intelligence officer identified as “Abu Omar.”

Inside an Israeli military site, the officer trained them to use a Glock
pistol and a suppressor. Israeli quadcopter drones later scanned the route
and guided the attackers toward the victim.

During the attack, the Israeli intelligence officer monitored a live video
feed transmitted from a camera attached to one of the gunmen’s clothing.

The investigation revealed that a technical malfunction nearly caused the
mission to fail. Despite the disruption, the assassination proceeded.
Communication then collapsed between the attackers and the Israeli officer
during their escape.

After contact was lost, the resistance arrested the gunman carrying the
camera. He had been recruited only one month earlier. The second gunman
escaped to areas under Israeli military control.

The detained gunman admitted his membership in the militia. He said the
group includes around 50 armed members and works to locate resistance
tunnels, carry out assassinations, and hand over Palestinians to Israel’s
internal security service, Shin Bet.

He also admitted that the militia raids aid trucks, lures targeted
individuals, and abducts the bodies of slain Palestinians, subjecting them
to abuse. According to the investigation, Israeli forces and drones provide
protection during these operations.

Israeli and international media reports have confirmed Israel’s involvement
in funding and arming armed groups inside Gaza. These efforts aim to create
local alternatives to the resistance and impose control over specific areas
after Israel failed to achieve decisive military dominance.

Haaretz reported that the Israeli army and Shin Bet coordinated directly
with Palestinian armed groups in Gaza, providing money, weapons, and
intelligence. Israeli military analyst Ronen Bergman described the project
as “full of problems,” warning of weak oversight and the risk that these
groups could become future threats to Israel.

The Wall Street Journal also reported that Israel funneled tens of millions
of shekels into these militias. Israeli outlets, including Yedioth
Ahronoth, cited the report, which said Israel supplied weapons, military
equipment, medical treatment in Israeli hospitals, and armed protection
when the groups came under attack.

According to the report, Israel focused in southern Gaza, especially in
Rafah, on recruiting individuals with criminal backgrounds. In other areas,
Israeli intelligence attempted to engage large clans to manufacture a local
security alternative.
