Abu Obeida: Prisoners will return in coffins if Netanyahu insists on military pressure | News

|

Al-Qassam Brigades spokesman Abu Obeida said on Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's insistence on releasing prisoners through military pressure instead of concluding a deal would mean their return in coffins, referring to the six detainees whose bodies were recovered by the occupation yesterday, Sunday.

Abu Obeida added that after the Nuseirat incident in the middle of the Gaza Strip, instructions were issued to the prisoners' guards regarding how to deal with them if the occupation army approached.

He stated that Netanyahu and the occupation army alone bear full responsibility for the deaths of the prisoners after they deliberately disrupted any deal for narrow interests and deliberately killed dozens of detainees by bombing, stressing that the families of the Israeli prisoners must choose between returning them dead or alive.

Yesterday, Sunday, the occupation accused the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) of executing the six prisoners who were found in a tunnel in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, by shooting them at close range, about 48 to 72 hours before they were found.

Abu Obeida's statements came after Netanyahu held a press conference in which he vowed to make Hamas pay the price for executing the six detainees, including an American citizen.

During the press conference, Netanyahu stressed his commitment to remaining in the Philadelphi Corridor, which is a point of contention in the negotiations, and both Hamas and Egypt are demanding that the occupation withdraw from it in order to conclude a deal.

The Israeli Prime Minister said, “Whoever demands that we make concessions after Hamas killed 6 of our kidnapped people is encouraging it to kill more,” according to his expression.

It is noteworthy that the occupation forces recovered 4 detainees last June in a military operation in Nuseirat, which resulted in a massive massacre that claimed the lives of more than 200 martyrs and hundreds of wounded, and also led to the killing of a number of detainees.
