The Hamas terror organization is suffering heavy losses and is collapsing in on itself, captured terrorists have told their Israeli interrogators, according to Israel’s defense minister.
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant (Likud) met with IDF soldiers at the 98th Division’s headquarters Sunday, and held an operational assessment.
During his visit, Gallant discussed Israel’s recent gains in its ongoing war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, saying that testimonials by terrorists captured in the IDF’s massive raid on Shifa Hospital in Gaza City highlighted the decline of Hamas’ operational capabilities.

以色列国防部长称，被抓获的恐怖分子告诉以色列审讯人员，哈马斯恐怖组织正在遭受重大损失，并且正在瓦解。
国防部长约阿夫·加兰特（利库德集团）周日在第 98 师总部会见了以色列国防军士兵，并进行了作战评估。
加兰特在访问期间讨论了以色列最近在加沙地带针对哈马斯的战争中取得的成果，并表示，在以色列国防军大规模袭击加沙城希法医院时捕获的恐怖分子的证词凸显了哈马斯作战能力的下降。
In the last week or two, hundreds of terrorists have been captured and what they say about what happened to them tells the whole story. They say that Hamas is collapsing from within. The prices they pay are very heavy.”
“In the last few days, we have also seen very great progress, both in the terrorists in the field, and with more senior commanders, even very senior ones,” Gallant continued.
Shifa Hospital, the local headquarters for Hamas in the northern Gaza Strip prior to the Israeli invasion of Gaza, was reoccupied by Hamas forces in recent months, Israeli security officials said earlier this month.
加兰特说，被俘的恐怖分子已经告诉以色列安全官员，该组织正在从内部瓦解。
在过去一两周内，数百名恐怖分子被抓获，他们对发生在他们身上的事情的讲述说明了整个故事。他们说哈马斯正在从内部崩溃。他们付出的代价是非常沉重的。”
加兰特继续说道：“在过去的几天里，我们也看到了非常巨大的进展，无论是在现场的恐怖分子方面，还是在更高级的指挥官方面，甚至是非常高级的指挥官方面。”
以色列安全官员本月早些时候表示，希法医院是以色列入侵加沙之前哈马斯在加沙地带北部的当地总部，近几个月被哈马斯部队重新占领。
