Gazan Family Disowns Son for Collaborating with Israel in Rare Public Denouncement
The Abu Shabab family publicly declares its disavowal of a relative accused of espionage for Israel, reinforcing solidarity with Palestinian resistance and sparking widespread praise across Gaza and the Arab world.

Watan-In a rare display of authenticity and national loyalty, the Abu Shabab family from the Gaza Strip publicly declared full disavowal of one of its members, Yasser Abu Shabab, after his involvement with Israeli occupation forces and betrayal of the Palestinian resistance was exposed.
The family’s statement was more than a clarification—it was a powerful moral and patriotic declaration that gained praise across Palestinian society and among many Arab observers.
The family explained that Yasser had deceived them for years by claiming to work in humanitarian aid for Gaza residents. However, shocking footage released by the Palestinian resistance later revealed his involvement in security operations for Israel. Testimonies from those close to him confirmed his affiliation with undercover Israeli units (“Mistaravim”), and even showed him beside an Israeli tank in Rafah wearing a helmet of an Israeli “anti-terror” unit.

This bold step by the Abu Shabab family has been widely welcomed by Palestinians, who saw it as a clear message to every traitor:“Treason will not be protected—even if it comes from within the household.”
The statement was also seen as a powerful rebuke to Israeli efforts to dismantle Palestinian social fabric and exploit vulnerability and poverty to buy loyalty.
At a time when many hesitate to expose corruption and collaboration, the Abu Shabab family chose to stand firm and speak the truth—declaring to Gaza and the resistance:“We stand with you, even if it costs us one of our own.”
