Gaza – Ma’an – Hamas leader Osama Hamdan said that Mohammed Deif, the leader of the movement’s military wing, is “fine and at work.”
Hamdan confirmed in a statement today, Sunday, that “Abu Khaled (Mohammed Al-Deif) is fine, and is still at work and performing his role as a leader of the resistance.”
He added, “All the rumors that were spread did not push him back, and he is still in his position, carrying out his role. Despite the passage of more than 330 days of war, neither he, nor his soldiers, nor his staff have shown any signs of weakness or faltering will.”
Contrary to the statements of the Hamas leader, the Israeli army “confirmed the assassination of Mohammed Deif on August 1 in the Gaza Strip, based on intelligence information collected by the Israeli army and public security services.”
The Israeli army statement at the time said, “The occupation army and the General Security Service eliminated Muhammad al-Deif.”
At the same time, Hamas denied the “claims and lies of the Israeli army regarding
the assassination of Al-Daif,” stressing that it “listens to the Israeli Prime Minister and mocks his false statements.”
