For more than a decade, the Iranian-backed Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Hamas terror groups have been holding summer camps for thousands of schoolchildren throughout the Gaza Strip.
On July 8, Hamas launched its summer camps for 2023, with the participation of more than 100,000 boys and girls.
"The summer camp director in Rafah, Muhammad Barhoum, said that the camps are part of Hamas' activities that focus on the [younger] generation"due to its importance as "The generation of liberation and victory."
In the past, Palestinian Islamic Jihad held summer camps under the slogan of Revenge of the Free, in which hundreds of boys under the age of 17 participated.
In 2021, Hamas's armed wing, Izz al-din al-Qassam Brigades, held summer camps under the slogan Sword of Jerusalem.
The spokesperson for the Hamas summer camps, Abu Bilal, said that the camps are being held "Out of belief in the role of the young people and a sense of responsibility for the [younger] generation." He added that "The young people have [always] been the ones to carry out armed operations, and were the fuel of the intifadas and uprisings."
The next time Palestinians complain about minors being killed or injured while carrying out terror attacks against Israelis, it would be worthwhile recalling the scenes of children in the summer camps of the Gaza Strip, where the process to transform them into combatants begins.
