Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s military wing, released a video on Telegram accusing ‘Israel’ of spying on their retrieval of captives’ bodies with drones, logging the locations into a target database, and later striking those sites despite a declared ceasefire.

In the video, the Brigades said they had deliberately used misleading tactics during body retrievals to frustrate ‘Israeli’ forces and deny them accurate intelligence.

The footage shows Qassam fighters placing pillows inside body bags to mimic corpses, an explicit effort to deceive ‘Israel’ and expose 'Israel's' reliance on surveillance and assumptions.

The release comes after ‘Israel’ circulated a video last week, claiming that Hamas fighters were dragging out body recoveries to stall operations, presenting it as “evidence” of deception.

Qassam’s video flips the narrative and appears to counter these claims, highlighting the use of strategic deception in their operations.
