Brutal treatment of LGBTQ members, Hebrew phrasebooks: IDF uncovers trove of Hamas secrets

IDF and Shin Bet have uncovered a treasure trove of Hamas intelligence, consisting of stacks of documents, files, and computers.

Among the findings were operational tables, equipment lists, classified maps, and instructions on what to do if captured.

"The amount of intelligence accumulated so far in the hands of Shin Bet and Military Intelligence allows us to dismantle Hamas from within," said a senior security official exposed to the documents.

The accuracy of the information on the bases and settlements indicated Hamas 's high-level intelligence gathering.

Some documents also revealed the corruption within Hamas , showing how they accumulated assets but also used them.

Gaza was constructed as one large military base, including the use of kindergartens, schools, clinics, hospitals, mosques .

The effort for collection and documentation was divided between routine and war times.

Hamas operational documentation photos were found, capturing the activities of forces, military infrastructure, and classified assets on masts, posts, tanks, APCs, and jeeps.

During the training phase for the photographers, two key points were emphasized: the selection of the operational photographer - "must be precise, tactically disciplined, patient, not hasty".
