An entire gang of collaborators with Israel who steal aid were eliminated today in Gaza. [Reposting as X marked the previous on as sensitive].

In the image before you, in the blurred part, a Palestinian resistance fighter launched an anti-armor shell at a vehicle carrying members of one of the largest crime gangs managed by Israel in the southern Gaza Strip.

This gang was responsible for stealing 109 out of 150 aid trucks yesterday. Everyone in the vehicle was eliminated by the Sahm Unit [Arrow Unit].

22 members of these Israeli-backed crime gangs and war profiteers were killed by the Sahm Unit [Arrow Unit] last night. Twenty-two members of these occupation-backed crime gangs and war profiteers were killed by the Sahm Unit last night. The ambush was carried out in cooperation with tribal committees and endorsed by Palestinian factions after monitoring communication between the gang and the Israeli Shin Bet.

One of the dead was the top leader of these gangs in the south and was inside the targeted vehicle.

Also a video shows an Israeli soldier from Unit 585 stopping and assaulting a Gaza aid truck driver near the Kerem Abu Salem crossing. The soldier posted the video on Instagram but deleted it soon after. This video also confirms what was mentioned before by Hebrew accounts: “The Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) continues to complain that international organizations are not coming to collect the aid placed near the Kerem Shalom crossing. They fail to mention that the IDF forces these organizations to go through the “looting zone,” where armed individuals charge them 15,000 shekels per truck, rob the entire truck, assault the driver, or shoot the tires.”

Also Previously reported on the 12th of November: Aid trucks reached besieged families in Beit Hanoun, creating a moment of hope. However, hours later, the Israeli army launched heavy bombings, killing many families. Soldiers then burned the school, destroying much of the aid, and forcibly displaced residents south. Hebrew media reports the army claims the burning was an isolated act against orders.

@muhammadshehad2:

Israel is aiding ISIS-linked terrorists & criminals to sow chaos & famine in Gaza: Shadi al-Sofi, a wanted murderer & son of an informant/collaborator with Israel, & Yasser abu Shabab, a drug dealer, are the main warlords responsible for looting most aid under IDF protection. They formed gangs of over 200 armed criminals & “established a military like compound” (per the UN) in an emptied “death zone” fully under IDF control, where they looted only this Saturday night about 100 aid trucks at once.

This way Israel can absolve itself of responsibility for its deliberate starvation policy in Gaza and say “look, we’re letting aid in, it’s Hamas’ fault that food doesn’t reach people” (as claimed by Senator Jon Fetterman yesterday).

IDF soldiers never fire at those gang members as they loot aid right in front of Israeli tanks & troops in a closed military zone that no Gazan is allowed into. The IDF only fires at local policemen whenever they try to prevent the looting.

Yasser Abu Shabab was arrested by Gaza’s local police multiple times in the past for drug smuggling & trading, which is often facilitated by ISIS groups in Sinai. Hamas militants attempted to eliminate him yesterday in an attack that killed 11 of his gang, including his brother & partner Fathi & the gang’s accountant. 30 others were wounded.

Shadi Al-Sofi murdered in 2020 Jabr al-Qeeq, a PLFP member whom Israel had sentenced to life & imprisoned for 15 years for killing al-Sofi’s father during the 1st Intifada for spying on Palestinians for Israel. Al-Sofi was convicted in a Gazan court & the local police captured him in a special operation in late 2020, before he broke out of prison with the help of ISIS-linked militants & was smuggled out of Gaza to Sinai, then reportedly to Israel’s Negev.

He returned to Gaza with the IDF ground invasion where he now co-leads the criminal gangs that loot aid & sabotage humanitarian work under IDF protection.

Here, @sharifkouddous & @jeremyscahill provide additional important insights on how Israel aids those criminal gangs to loot aid under IDF protection.

Israel has been reaching out to many large families & gangs throughout Gaza to do its dirty work. Most refused, some accepted & are armed by Israel. Local police has a full list of names of collaborators & announced yesterday they’ll launch more attacks against them
