The Palestinian police general killed by Israeli forces on Monday morning was in charge of securing the entry of aid trucks into northern Gaza, according to Al Jazeera.
His efforts resulted in the safe entry of aid trucks for two nights in a row, following weeks of Israel targeting convoys and aid seekers.
Over two dozen aid trucks entered Gaza City over the weekend and reached isolated areas in the north for the first time in months.
They will claim that he was either Hamas or that he didn’t condemn Hamas.
According to Israel any government official in Gaza is Hamas.
According to Israel any person in Gaza is Hamas.
Well factually this guy is Hamas.
Just not the Hamas military but the above ground police force that escorts food trucks to the north.
Aren’t the police typically not affiliated with any party?
The police falls under Gaza’s government which is Hamas. Just like how the doctors work for “Hamas”. However it does not do combat with israel that is only Al Qassam
The police guards food trucks against looting so they can reach the north with food.
So they’re affiliated with the government, not necessarily Hamas.
