A group called London Against Hamas posted materials in Tube (train) stations in the capital city on Monday, the one-year anniversary of Hamas’s Oct. 7 terror attack in southern Israel, calling attention to “Hamas rape tunnels” in Gaza.
“The posters features a mock Tube map of Gaza, highlighting Hamas’s underground tunnels with labels like ‘Hostage execution tunnel’ and ‘Hamas rape Tunnel,’” the Jewish Chronicle (London) reported.
The posters state: “On Oct. 7th, 2023, Hamas murdered hundreds and kidnapped many more. The UK government must do everything possible to secure the release of the 100 hostages still unaccounted for after 365 days of terror.”
The group superimposed the posters over tube maps without permission from the government entity that runs the London Underground. Transport for London has said the unauthorized posters will be removed.
Take a look at @LondonNotHamas. They are taking back the London Underground with posters highlighting Hamas murder, rape, torture & kidnap on the 1st anniversary of 7th October massacre. Stations & trains on every underground line are showing these posters. pic.twitter.com/Ov5C3ejOfY
