GAZA: According to Qassam Brigade of Hamas, following ‘direct bombardment’ on the area, contact severed with militants holding the US-Israeli soldier Edan Alexander hostage, Wednesday (16th April, 2025).
Qassam Brigade spokesman stated: “It seems that the occupation army is deliberately trying to kill him and hence relieve themselves from the pressure caused by the dual-citizen prisoners to continue its genocide against our people.”
In a video released by Hamas the captives’ families have been addressed: “Be prepared. Soon your children will return in black coffins with their bodies torn apart by shrapnel from your army’s missiles…
“Your leadership has signed the decision to execute the prisoners in the Gaza Strip.” It may be recalled that on 12th April, Hamas released a video featuring Elan Alexander appealing President Donald Trump to get him out of Gaza.
