Al-Qassam: Israel’s intelligence cannot know the fate of Shaul Aaron

Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, has expressed its strong belief that Israel’s intelligence would not be able to find any information about the fate of its captive soldier Shaul Aaron.

“Today, the prisoners have a new hope of getting their freedom soon while the enemy is still confused, and it will remain impotent to get any information about its captive solider despite its use of all intelligence means in its possession,” al-Qassam Brigades stated Monday on its website.

“On 20/07/2014 at dawn, 0:45 am, men from the Brigades were able to capture soldier Shaul Aaron in an operation in the east of Gaza City, during which 14 [Israeli] soldiers were killed and dozens injured, including the commander of the Golani Brigade Ghassan Alian,” the Brigades added.

Al-Qassam Brigades, however, did not give any information stating if the Israeli soldier is dead or still alive.
