🚨Conclusive evidence of Israel running the very criminal gangs looting aid in Gaza🧵

Hamas released footage today of an ambush against what they thought were Israeli Mista'arvim (undercover) soldiers in Rafah

But upon closer inspection, they turned out to be Abu Shabab's gang; the Israel-backed warlord, drug dealer, & serial criminal responsible for looting the vast majority of aid under full IDF protection.

Abu Shabab runs a gang of 100-200 armed mercenaries who sat up a military complex in Rafah with Israel's backing

In the footage, Abu Shabab's mercenaries were walking around a depopulated Rafah freely carrying weapons in front of Israeli troops (currently any Palestinian that walks into Rafah is killed on the spot).

The mercenaries were conducting surveillance activities for Israel of those areas.

2\ From the Hamas footage, a senior Abu Shabab gang leader is identified; Ghassan Al-Dahini is the mercenary running the gang's operation on the ground

He survived this ambush & is believed to still be running the Israel-backed gang

3\ In mid-April, exactly when this ambush was carried out, a facebook group posted the names of 4 armed individuals that were killed in Rafah while "conducting work"

They were ex-officers of the PA security forces

They are the ones seen killed in the Hamas video above

4\ The IDF itself just admitted that Abu Shabab is the gang leader responsible for looting aid

They left out that he's doing so under full IDF protection who allow him to operate this group of armed mercenaries in Rafah

5\ Today Abu Shabab's own family disowned him, & called for his elimination after it was proven that his gang is operating under Israel's instructions

6\ But here's where it gets crazier; Abu Shabab, the Israel-backed warlord looting most of the aid just announced establishing an "anti-terror force" in Rafah to "secure aid"

He's operating right in front of Israeli troops, in brand new military fatigue & Israeli M-16 rifles

7\ Abu Shabab's gang are now even running two official Facebook pages, glorifying him as a "national leader" to rehabilitate his image after Israel decided to create a puppet "security force" out of his gang

The FB page publishes content in fluent English & Arabic; a psy-op!

8\ Why is Israel allowing a criminal gang to loot aid under IDF protection & creating a "security force" out of this very gang?

Israel provides the answer: to engineer a crisis of looting & chaos to justify their new mercenary shell GHF group that weaponizes food for genocide
