Telegram has become an outlet for Hamas terrorists to share their videos, statements, and other information as social media platforms have blocked accounts aligned with the terrorist organization.
The messaging platform has been used to share graphic footage from the conflict in Israel, including of a woman being kidnapped at a music festival near the Israeli border with Gaza. The platform was also used by Hamas to send out a statement saying the group would begin executing civilian hostages for every unannounced attack on Gaza.
“Hamas utilizes Telegram channels in Arabic and English to further spread its propaganda through distribution of the group’s press releases and statements to thousands of subscribers to those channels. Much of what appears on the channels is taken directly from Hamas’s website, offering another direct method of pushing out its releases to followers who, given the nature of Telegram, have specifically sought out the group," Lipowsky said.
Telegram emphasizes that its platform is secure for its messaging, both in groups and direct messages, saying it uses end-to-end encryption and has"disclosed 0 bytes of user data to third parties, including governments," during its 10-year existence. The messaging platform was created in 2013 and has its development base in Dubai, but it says it is"ready to relocate again if local regulations change.
