The video that enraged Israelis: They accuse Hamas of exhuming remains and staging a “discovery” to show to the Red Cross

According to Israel, the video shows Hamas members moving a body from a building, placing it in a pit, covering it with soil, and bringing in a photographer to “confirm” the finding

Newsroom October 29 08:55

The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas once again seems to be walking a fine red line after the bombings launched by Tel Aviv, accusing the Palestinian terrorist organization of attacking Israeli soldiers in Rafah.

In addition to this attack, the Israelis say they are outraged by Hamas’s handling of the remains of dead hostages that have not been returned, accusing it of staging fake “discoveries.”

To support its claims, Israel released a drone video which it says shows Hamas men removing a body from a building and covering it with soil elsewhere, allegedly to convince the Red Cross that they had “discovered” a body.

Hamas are lying about our hostages and here’s the proof:

Yesterday, Hamas terrorists were filmed removing body remains from a prepared structure and re-burying them nearby, before summoning Red Cross representatives to stage a false “discovery” for photographers.

According to Israel, the video was recorded on Monday, just a few hours before Hamas handed over the remains of a dead Israeli hostage, which, however, turned out not to belong to him.

The footage shows two men carrying a body covered with a white sheet to a pit, burying it with soil using an excavator, and then calling a photographer to “verify” the truth of their claims.

Israel announced that the remains handed over on Tuesday were those of hostage Ofir Tzarfati, a 27-year-old Israeli who had been killed at the Nova music festival on October 7, 2023, but parts of his body had already been discovered by the Israeli armed forces in December 2023.
