Hamas' Qassam Brigades have threatened to execute Israeli prisoners if Israel continues to bomb civilian homes in Gaza without warning.
"Any targeting of innocent civilians, without warning, will be met with regret by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution," said Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas' Qassam Brigades.
"We regret this decision, but we hold the Zionist enemy (Israel) and their leadership responsible for this," he said.
Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen has said that Israeli authorities now believe that 100 people have been captured by Hamas and taken to Gaza.
