The AlQassam Brigades have issued a statement denying responsibility for recent incidents in the Rafah area of the Gaza Strip. The group emphasized its commitment to adhering to all agreements, particularly the ceasefire in the region.
In their statement, the AlQassam Brigades claimed they have no knowledge of any clashes or events occurring in Rafah, which they described as "red zones" under the control of Israeli forces. They noted that communication with their fighters in those areas has been severed since the resumption of hostilities in March of this year. The group stated that they lack information regarding the status of their members in Rafah, expressing uncertainty about whether they have been killed or are still alive since that time.
As a result, the AlQassam Brigades asserted that they are not connected to any incidents occurring in Rafah and cannot communicate with any of their fighters who may still be alive.
This statement comes amid ongoing tensions in the region, with recent developments including Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) strikes on Hamas targets in Gaza following ceasefire violations. For more information on related coverage, see recent developments.
