Controversy Surrounds Alleged Audio Recording of Hamas Leader Mohammed Al-Daif

Watan-Activists on social media have circulated an audio recording attributed to the Commander-in-Chief of the Al-Qassam Brigades, Mohammed Al-Daif.

In the concise recording taken from “walkie-talkie” communication, the voice attributed to Mohammed Al-Daif says: “May God strengthen you… They think there are no men to trample on their heads.” Another person responds: “Understood, Abu Khalid.”

Many have cast doubt on the authenticity of the audio recording attributed to “Al-Daif,” speculating that it may have been produced using artificial intelligence, especially since the official platforms of Hamas and the Al-Qassam Brigades have not previously released such recordings attributed to the Commander-in-Chief.

The Commander-in-Chief of the Al-Qassam Brigades, Mohammed Al-Daif, launched the “Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa” on October 7, 2023, against the Israeli occupation, coinciding with the incursion of resistance fighters into settlements near the Gaza Strip.
