Hamas gunmen are guarding aid convoys in Gaza, and its police patrol city streets, sending a clear message: Hamas remains in charge.

For all the military might Israel deployed in Gaza, it failed to remove Hamas from power, one of its central war aims.

The youngest hostage still in captivity in Gaza, Kfir was just shy of 9 months old when he was kidnapped during the Hamas-led terror ist attack Oct.7, 2023. On Saturday, he turned 2, having never known a birthday outside captivity.

The IDF recently completed a major raid at the Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, arresting some 240 terrorists. Fox News Digital has learned that hostages were reportedly held there.

Hamas has been involved in a prolonged firefight with bandits trying to loot aid trucks, as the terror organisation struggles to assert control over Gaza.

Hamas fighters are once again rising up and taking back control of the streets of Gaza - even though thousands have been killed in 15 months of bloody war with Israel

Hamas has reasserted some control in the Gaza Strip in the days since the six-week ceasefire between it and Israel went into effect.

Hamas' armed wing said the group would abide by a ceasefire agreement that came into force in Gaza on Sunday but that any possible Israeli violations would endanger the process and put the lives of hostages at risk.

Israeli troops have pulled back to the edges of Gaza, the first hostages have been released and many Palestinians have returned to what remains of their homes in the first few days of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal.

The Israeli military says it “continues to attack” inside the Gaza Strip as a dispute with Hamas delayed the start of a planned ceasefire.

A cease-fire agreement between Israel and terrorist group Hamas began Sunday with the release of three Israeli hostages, in exchange for some 90 Palestinian prisoners in.
