In a powerful video released by the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT), a former school director in Gaza is seen delivering a scathing condemnation of Hamas, blaming the terror group for his son's death and for the suffering of the Palestinian people.

The man, identified as Sa'ad al-Mas'hal, says his son was killed while working at a distribution center in Khan Yunis when Hamas terrorists attacked the workers there. In a moment of raw grief and rage, he addresses the group's leadership directly: "Our money has been stolen, may God burn the hearts of your mothers and fathers, just as you have burned ours."

Al-Mas'hal accuses Hamas of abandoning the residents of Gaza, stealing their property, and violating their dignity. He claims that the group’s leaders act against the values of Islam and use civilians as human shields while trampling on their rights. He also criticizes local media, calling them "holders of poisoned pens" and "purveyors of lies" serving the interests of Hamas.

Major General Ghassan Alian, head of COGAT, shared the video on the unit's Arabic Facebook page, adding a message for Gaza residents: "Hamas is your enemy. It robs you of your resources, spreads lies, and tramples on your rights. It uses you to serve its terrorist interests, destroys the Gaza Strip from within, and does not hesitate to harm your children."

Al-Mas'hal’s testimony is the latest in a growing number of voices from within Gaza openly expressing frustration with Hamas. These citizens are accusing the group of sacrificing the public's well-being and the lives of innocent people to maintain its own power.
