Hamas says seven civilian prisoners killed in Israel's Jabalia bombing

Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, Hamas' armed wing, said on Wednesday that seven civilians held by the group in Gaza were killed in the Israeli bombing of the Jabalia refugee camp on Tuesday, which killed at least 100 Palestinians. 

In a brief communique, Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades said three of those killed were foreign passport holders. 

The Palestinian group previously said around 50 people out of around 200 in its custody had been killed in the relentless Israeli shelling since 7 October. 

Middle East Eye could not independently verify the claim. 

Israel confirmed at least 240 people are held captive by various Palestinian groups in Gaza.
