Hamas agents kidnapped, tortured and executed a 22 -year -old Palestinian who participated in the wave of protests last week against the terrorist group, according to his family.
The body of Oday Nasser Al Rabay was left in front of his family’s home during the weekend. On Saturday, many dozen was filmed by participating in his funeral procession, shouting: “Hamas Out!”
Hamas would have threatened the Palestinians who participated in the demonstrations against the terrorist group, but that seems to be the first time that anyone has been killed in connection with them.
The demonstrations took place for three consecutive days last week, but none took place this weekend, in the midst of the evaluations in Israel that Hamas intimidated demonstrators.

A Gazan man who now lives in Türkiye, who had published most of the images of the demonstrations, recently said that senior Hamas officials threatened him with his activities.
The terrorist group, which has governed Gaza since 2007, said on Thursday that the demonstrations were against Israel rather than Hamas, despite reports, interviews and contrary images.
The family of Odai Nasser, 22, Saadi al-Rubai, who was kidnapped, tortured and murdered by Hamas militias, opened fire during his funeral and swore to avenge his death.

According to the public broadcaster Kan, partly out of desire to cancel the demonstrations, some members of Hamas have readily shown to release a small number of hostages to obtain a truce during the end holidays of Ramadan of Eid Al-Fitr, which begins on Sunday evening.
Hamas wants to reprimand those who participate in demonstrations but cannot do so due to Israel’s takeover operations in Gaza, because the FDI targets terrorist agents which it identifies in the open air, according to the report.
Israel resumed its operations in Gaza on March 18, scutting up the cease-fire and hostage release agreement concluded in January. The first 42 -day phase of the agreement expired on March 2 in the middle of Israel’s refusal to negotiate the second phase.

The first phase saw Hamas release 33 women, children, civilians over 50 and those who judged “humanitarian affairs”, in exchange for some 1,900 Palestinian prisoners, including more than 270 in the service of life in connection with the murders of dozens of Israelis.
The second phase would have seen the terrorism group, the hostages of publication 24 which would have still been alive. All are young men kidnapped on October 7, 2023, when thousands of terrorists led by Hamas storm southern Israel to kill some 1,200 people and take 251 hostages, causing war in Gaza.
Hamas also holds the remains of 35 hostages, including an FDI officer whose body was torn off after being killed to fight in the 2014 Gaza War.
