The rights organization stated that Hamas operatives have also kidnapped, tortured, threatened, and murdered Palestinians who oppose the organization's reign, whom Hamas also dubs "collaborators".

 

The report says at least two dozen men have been shot to death by Hamas since the end of Israel's military operation in Gaza, and "scores of others" have been shot in the foot or kneecap, or severely beaten. Amnesty's report lists specific cases of severe beatings and accuses Hamas of "grave human rights abuses".
