A minibus belonging to the Red Cross was transferred to the south of Gaza City between 1:08 PM and 1:37 PM UTC on October 12th, 2025, amidst reports that Hamas terrorists attacked the Dughmush family residences using ambulance vehicles. According to an X post citing "Philipp27960841", the Qassam Brigades attacked Dughmush family homes with mortars and rocket launchers, resulting in executions, including that of a pregnant woman. Earlier, Saudi A-Shark Channel and Arab TV sources reported that Hamas and other factions had finalized preparations for the release of Israeli hostages, expected to commence tomorrow morning. The Israeli government spokesman confirmed that the IDF is retreating to the yellow line in anticipation of this release. Al-Jazeera reported the potential recovery of 28 bodies following the release of captives. In parallel, the Qatari al-Arab channel reported on October 12th, 2025, that Hamas's military wing will deliver several spaces to Israel tomorrow. This development comes as internal clashes were previously reported across Gaza between Hamas forces and powerful families, with fierce fighting noted in the north where approximately 15 members of the Dughmush family were reportedly executed near the Jordanian hospital, according to local sources cited by @Osint613 around 12:35 PM UTC. Further context from earlier reports indicates the IDF published a document believed to be handwritten by Yahya Sinwar, detailing guidelines for the October 7 attack, released between 10:35 AM and 11:35 AM UTC on October 12th, 2025. The document outlined instructions for creating horrific imagery and inciting violence. Separately, Gaza flotilla activists detained by Israel have arrived in Jordan, as reported by Al Jazeera. U.S. President Donald Trump was scheduled to arrive in Israel on October 12th, 2025, amidst indications of potential hostage releases.
