Gazans living around Nuseirat were warned by the IDF on Thursday to expel the Hamas elements among them “before it’s too late.”
The warning, written in the local language by IDF Arabic Spokesperson Avichay Adraee, told the local residents to “stay away from Hamas elements hiding among you and expel them before it’s too late!”
Adraee attached a photo naming six specific Hamas operatives who “operate in your area, using your civilian infrastructure and positioning themselves in your vicinity. Hamas exploits your civilian infrastructure for its terrorist activities.
“We call upon you to expel the terrorist elements from among you and to stay away from the terrorist structures of Hamas!” he wrote.
The warning came less than a day after video footage uploaded to social media showing Hamas gunmen opening fire on Gazans who came to raid the terrorists’ food warehouse.
حاولت حماس على مدار أشهر ترويج كذبة التجويع ليتضح ان حماس اخبئت أطنان كبيرة من الطحين في مخازنها. من يوجّع أهالي غزة؟

The terrorist organization has stolen hundreds of thousands of tons of humanitarian aid intended for civilians over the course of the war, hoarding it for use by its own operatives and their families.
“For months, Hamas has been spreading the lie of starvation, only to discover that it had hidden tons of flour in its warehouses,” Adraee wrote in the post.
“Who is hurting the people of Gaza? May God take revenge upon you, you infidels,” he added.
