Israeli Officer’s Fear: Al-Qassam’s Video Reveals Dramatic Pursuit at Shifa Complex
Watan-A video of an Israeli officer speaking from inside the Shifa Medical Complex after its raid spread, notably showing him with his back turned rather than facing the camera.
In the video, the Israeli officer stated that their forces would continue to pursue the leaders of the Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, until they eliminate them, according to his expression.
The striking aspect of the video is that the officer was seen speaking with his back turned, without showing his face in these shots.
The reason for the Israeli officer’s fear
This scene is likely related to a video by the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Hamas movement, about tracking and killing an Israeli officer who was responsible for the initial raid on the Shifa Complex last November.
قائد عملية اقتحام مستشفى الشفاء:
سنلاحق قادة حماس حتى نقضي عليهم جميعًا.العجيب أن الضابط يظهرخائفًا متخفيًا وينظر للحائط بينما يتحدث، يبدو أن رسالة كتائب القسام أمس باغتيالها الضابط يتهسار هوفمان قائد العملية الأولى لاقتحام المستشفى وصلت إلى القائد الجديد فقرر أن يهدد ب”قفاه”. pic.twitter.com/ib0r1nJDnz

Al-Qassam’s video tracking the officer responsible for raiding the Shifa Complex
Al Jazeera had broadcast footage showing Al-Qassam Brigades tracking the movements of an Israeli officer responsible for besieging and raiding the Shifa Hospital in Gaza before sniping and killing him.
This was the first time Al-Qassam revealed images taken by its monitoring and tracking device during the “Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa” battle.
The footage showed Al-Qassam fighters tracking the movements of the officer in the Shalit unit before he was killed by a sniper. He appeared at a field command center in Gaza City with a number of soldiers about a kilometer away from the Shifa Hospital.
Hofman was the Israeli officer responsible for besieging and raiding the Shifa Hospital in the western part of Gaza City in mid-November last year.
Al-Qassam had published a video of sniping Officer Hofman after the Israeli occupation army announced his death at the end of January last year.
