Some members of the Executive Force of the Ministry of Interior turned themselves in to the Fatah affiliated National Security Forces in the Gaza Strip and demanded to join the forces, Palestinian sources reported on Saturday evening.
The central command of the National Security Force issued a press release in which it confirmed these reports and stated that the reason behind this move is that those officers described the Executive Force as a destructive and illegal killing force in which they do not want to be involved anymore.
Palestinian security sources who asked to remain unknown told IMEMC that the group are currently in one of the National security forces facilities in Gaza but refused to provide more for concern over the ‘safety of the officers’.
On the other hand, Hamas claimed that members of the National Security Forces have left their posts and act individually. However, the central command of the Security Force completely denied these claims saying that its members are committed to follow orders of their superior officers.
