Hamas says 'Israel freeing two captives a marketing ploy for a defeated army'
They’re looking remarkably undefeated for a defeated army.
[GEO.TV] Osama Hamdan, a member of Hamas
...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
's political bureau based in Beirut, has labelled Israel's release of two captives as a mere "marketing ploy for a defeated army," Al Jazeera reported.

According to Hamdan, this move is an attempt to bolster the Israeli army's morale amid ongoing struggles, particularly in Khan Younis, where they face resistance and have failed to retrieve additional captives.

Hamdan questions the credibility of Israel's account, suggesting that the two released captives were not in Hamas's custody but held with a civilian family. This raises doubts about the accuracy of Israel's narrative and indicates an effort to exaggerate the incident.

Highlighting the resistance's achievements, Hamdan notes that, after four months, the Qassam Brigades still hold 134 captives, considering it a significant accomplishment.
and a War Crime
The release of the two captives is perceived by Hamas as a strategic move by Israel to counterbalance its military setbacks and project a semblance of success in the conflict.
