Hamas’s Qassam Brigades has threatened to execute Israeli captives if Israel continues to bombard and kill civilians in Gaza.

“Any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution,” said Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas’ Qassam Brigades.

“We regret this decision but we hold the Zionist enemy and their leadership the responsibility for this,” he said.

      Usually what Israel does is counter artillery action and maybe some airstrikes. They haven’t actually invaded in a while. I expect that’s what’s going to happen this time around too, they’re likely mostly focused on Gaza.
