Al-Qassam Battalions:
The dead Samir Mahmoud Abu Yunis "Abu Mahmoud", a member of the General Military Council of the al-Qassam Brigades and commander of the Rafah Brigade, who rose up after an assassination operation, bled for his master as a martyr after a blessed battle of jihad and giving. Our dead man was from the first generation of Al-Qassam Brigades, so he joined Al-Qassam Brigades in 1991 and was detained in enemy prisons.
He also participated in many specific operations and confronted enemy invasions. He was one of the active leaders during the Al-Aqsa Intifada. He rose to leadership positions in the Rafah Brigade, until he led the Western Battalion, succeeded the slain commander Mahmoud Hamdan and then the Rafah Brigade, and succeeded the slain commander Nael Abu Obeid "Abu Atiya".
He was one of the most important leaders involved in planning and overseeing the October 7 attack.
While we are bleeding today, our leader, we are sure of the justice and sanctity of our cause, and that it deserves everything precious and valuable from us, and that the path told by Abu Mahmoud and his brothers in blood is our crossing towards victory and liberation, and that as the enemy criminal and Nazism will grow in our youth. Old men, and they are storing it up for the day when they will face the enemies of God and humanity, and deny their height. As a means of seeking relief, to free the land and the people from their evil, for this is a covenant that will not shed blood and will not waver in decision, and God is in control of his affairs, but most people do not know.
