The Palestinian group Hamas has rejected accusations by the US State Department that the group is harming Palestinians and violating the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip.
"These false accusations are fully in line with deceptive Israeli propaganda and provide cover for the ongoing crimes of the (Israeli) occupation and organized aggression against our people," Hamas said on social media.
The group also accused the Israeli military of arming and financing criminal gangs that commit atrocities targeting civilians in Gaza.
