A fearless elderly woman in Gaza risked her life to speak out against Hamas as some brave Palestinians call for the terrorists’ downfall.

Footage shows the courageous Palestinian wagging her finger at a reporter and telling him that their humanitarian aid has been stolen by the militant regime.

She chose to tell the world of their crimes despite fearing the extremists ‘will even shoot me’ for descent.

Others in the war-ravaged territory have claimed the fighters steal their food, loot their homes and lure Israeli attacks onto civilians.

The IDF said it has found weapons stashed in classrooms as it continued to pound Gaza and destroy tunnel shafts across the strip yesterday.

But while Israel has been criticised for its deadly bombing campaign, some Palestinians are beginning to speak up against the evil regime of Hamas.

An elderly woman in a headscarf was seen berating a Al Jazeera reporter who suggested aid was not reaching her due to the ‘difficult’ situation. 

Last night, other Palestinians also spoke out to claim Hamas had looted their homes and lured Israeli bombing raids on to civilian areas

She told him: ‘All aid goes down underground. The aid does not reach the nation and the entire people.

‘A lot is coming. What comes is only a little and it is distributed – so they say.’

As the reporter again tries to suggest the situation is ‘difficult’ she shakes her finger in front of a crowd of Palestinians.

She says: ‘Everything goes to their houses. They take it, they will even shoot me and do whatever they want to me, Hamas.’

Another young Palestinian mother also accused Hamas of stealing their food. Seen stood cradling her young baby, she told a reporter she wanted this message to ‘reach all countries of the world’.

She said: ‘You send us humanitarian aid, but I swear to God that we get nothing. Only if we chase them and beg. They mock us when we ask. They humiliate us.’

The woman said the terrorists ‘take advantage of us’ and declared: ‘May God take revenge on them.’

It comes as a Palestinian living in Gaza spoke to the Mail on Sunday on condition of anonymity claiming that people in the territory want Hamas to fall.

‘This is the shared dream of Gaza,’ said the married 33-year-old father-of-two, who was speaking as part of a project by The Center for Peace Communications to hear anti-regime voices in Gaza.

He claimed that despite living under constant bombardment from Israel ‘we are afraid most of Hamas’ as the group monitors social media for dissent.

‘I heard they have taken people and executed them,’ he said. ‘They will accuse any person of being an agent and they are disappeared.’

The father said his brother was killed by Hamas when it seized power in 2007 as the group rounded up political opponents and killed or jailed them.

Israel 's military said it was fighting 'house to house' and had conducted lightning raids to try to free dozens of Israeli hostage

After the outbreak of war he claims his neighbourhood was ransacked after all civilians evacuated south.

‘My house was completely cleared out. Not just my house, the whole neighbourhood,’ he said.

‘Who can steal all this stuff? They need cars and trucks to carry all of these materials, all the food and money from the house. There is no Israeli army in that area, so the only party that can be responsible for that is Hamas.’

He also claimed al-Qassam, the terrorists’ fighting wing, have been luring IDF bombs onto civilian shelters and hospitals.

He said they go on the rooves of hospitals and visit schools where families are hiding ‘for a little bit’ then ‘disappear’. He said: ‘It’s just like telling Israel, “Come and bomb this place.” ‘

It comes after an injured Palestinian man at Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital was seen telling an al-Jazeera reporter that Hamas were hiding among patients last month.

He said: ‘They come and hide among the people. Why are they hiding among the people? They can go to Hell and hide there.’

Yesterday it was claimed some 900 injured and sick Palestinians have been left lying on the blood-soaked floor of the European Hospital in Khan Younis.

Two ambulance crew members and a civilian were injured in reported strike by aircraft on an ambulance in nearby al-Fukhkhari.

The southern area has been subjected to some of the hardest bombing raids in recent days.
