Abu Obaida: Body of fighter guarding Edan Alexander recovered

Abu Obaida, the military spokesperson for Al-Qassam Brigades, announced the retrieval of the body of a martyr who had been tasked with guarding the captive, Edan Alexander. The fate of the prisoner and those holding him remains unknown.

In a brief statement posted Saturday, Abu Obaida said the movement is working to protect all captives and preserve their lives despite the ongoing Israeli Occupation aggression.

He added that "the occupation lies about treating prisoners inhumanely and fabricates false testimonies from former captives."

He concluded the post by stating that the Israeli Occupation is "inciting against the resistance and trying to cover up the scandal of killing many of its own captives and causing continued suffering for the rest."
