The spokesperson for the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, Abu Obaida, shared on Friday updates on the ongoing aggression in Gaza and the resistance's response.

Abu Obaida expressed regret over the loss of contact with their fighters guarding enemy captives, suspecting casualties due to Israeli Occupation airstrikes.

He confirmed the deaths of seven captives, including Haim Gershon Peri, Yoram Itak Metzger, and Amiram Israel Cooper. Abu Obaida pledged to reveal the identities of four other casualties.

He accused the Israeli Occupation leadership of intentionally targeting captives, vowing that the resistance would exact a high price for any lives lost.

Abu Obaida's last announcement was on Feb 16.
