He slammed Hamas for spending the war below ground in tunnels while the population remained above ground, saying that the Gaza Strip was the only place where civilians were above ground and the army was underground during a war. 

Kamil said that during the war in Beirut, under Yasser Arafat’s instructions, the fighters remained above ground while civilians stayed in underground shelters – which is why most casualties were among the fighters. 

He added that now, after the ceasefire, Hamas has emerged from underground only to turn on its own people.
