Qatari broadcaster Al Jazeera has released previously unseen footage showing senior commanders of Hamas's Al-Qassam Brigades, including military chief Mohammed Deif, discussing battle plans in underground tunnels and operations rooms in Gaza ahead of the October 7, 2023, terrorist attack on Israel. The footage shows Deif examining models of Israeli tanks and meeting with senior commanders, including Rafa'a Salameh, Mohammed Odeh and Hamas spokesman Abu Obeida. Other recordings show Deif alongside Yahya Sinwar and Ismail Haniyeh at a rocket manufacturing facility. Al Jazeera also published documents it says reveal how the attack was prepared. One, dated October 5, 2023, bears Deif's signature following a six-hour military meeting and orders the assault to begin at 6:30 a.m. on October 7. Another, dated February 2023, documents preparations months before the massacre. Hamas terrorists killed approximately 1,200 people in southern Israel on October 7, most of them civilians, and abducted 251 others into Gaza. Deif was killed in an Israeli airstrike in July 2024. The other senior commanders featured in the archival footage have also since been killed by Israel. Subscribe Visegrád24

First Muslim senator elected amid past Muslim Brotherhood statement Democrat Abdul El-Sayed won the U.S. Senate election in Michigan, becoming the first Muslim elected to the upper chamber of Congress. El-Sayed used the phrase “hurt people hurt people” when commenting on the terrorist attack on the Temple Israel synagogue in West Bloomfield, where a man rammed the building with a truck. He essentially justified the antisemitic violence by suggesting the attacker had relatives killed in Lebanon by Israeli strikes. He took an extremely hardline position on the Middle East, openly calling Israel’s actions in Gaza “genocide” and demanding a complete halt to U.S. military aid. El-Sayed was among 46 Egyptian-Americans who signed a 2012 statement supporting Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood-backed President Mohamed Morsi and calling on him to “purge the media and the police as quickly as possible.” Shortly before the election, his former primary rival Haley Stevens quit his campaign, accusing El-Sayed of using “dangerous hate rhetoric,” citing his joint appearances with left-wing blogger Hasan Piker, known for harsh statements against Israel and American Jews.
