Hamas: Number of Israelis captured,

The Palestinian resistance movement says the number of Israelis captured in the ongoing "Storm al-Aqsa" operation against the Zionist enemy... is "many times higher" at a few dozen than Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. Hamas military wing spokesman Abu Ubaida said this in a recorded message broadcast shortly after midnight Sunday. “Today you spoke of dozens of prisoners and we reassure you, Netanyahu, that your prisoners are many times more than this number and that you must keep good track of your soldiers,” said the al-Qassam Brigades representative, with based in the Gaza Strip. 

“These prisoners are present in all areas [of Gaza], and everything that happens to our people in the Gaza Strip is happening to them,” the spokesperson added. The movement's fighters have captured large numbers of Israeli forces and settlers since early Saturday, when they launched Operation al-Aqsa Storm, the largest conducted in years by Palestinian resistance groups against the occupying regime.
