The IDF stated it has published verified evidence, including visual materials and documents originating from the terror groups and some found on the battlefield, which attest to their organizational affiliations and roles within the terror factions. According to the IDF, 118 of these individuals were active in Hamas, 49 operated within Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), one was affiliated with the 'Lions of the Desert' (a designation used by some militant groups), and two belonged to the Popular Resistance Committees.
