Disturbing footage revealing Hamas's years-long torture of Gaza civilians has been discovered by IDF forces, according to Britain's Daily Mail. The videos show systematic abuse of Palestinians suspected of cooperating with Israel or violating Hamas's strict laws.
IDF troops uncovered thousands of hours of video documentation in an abandoned compound in Jabaliya, northern Gaza, where intense military operations are ongoing. The footage, dated 2018-2019, shows horrific scenes of torture including men bound to floors and ceilings, some hooded, undergoing severe abuse.
"These aren't isolated incidents," an IDF spokesperson explained. "This was Hamas's systematic method of controlling Gaza's population through terror."
The videos reveal a dark reality of life under Hamas rule, where suspected "collaborators" or those who violated Hamas's strict religious laws faced brutal punishment. The torture chambers were part of Hamas's internal security apparatus, designed to crush any opposition within Gaza.
This evidence emerges as international attention focuses on Gaza's humanitarian crisis, offering concrete proof of how Hamas treated its own civilian population even before the current conflict.
