This show of force, welcomed by some Palestinians after months of lawlessness, could now threaten the fragile ceasefire, especially as all living hostages from Hamas’s 7 October 2023 attack have been released.

The Hamas-run police maintained a high degree of public security after the militants seized power in Gaza 18 years ago while also cracking down on dissent. They largely melted away in recent months as Israeli forces seized large areas of Gaza and targeted Hamas security forces with airstrikes.

    These people are guilty of terrorism, murder, rape, theft of critical supplies during a genocide, complicity in genocide, and collaboration with the Zionists. What are they supposed to just apologize and everyone moves on?

      I don’t know, send them to the hague or something. I think spontaneous extrajudicial executions in the public square aren’t going to help the people of Gaza feel safe, but maybe I’m projecting.

        What an absolute joke, send them to the Hauge? What are they gonna do, tell them with very strong words that they’re disappointed? International law isnt real, international courts don’t really exist, it is the job of Gaza to make sure that their criminals face justice.
