Mahmoud Zahar, a Hamas co-founder, blatantly lies to a reporter about the terror group firing rockets from civilian areas.

Hamas leaders constantly lie to international media, but their latest is particularly outrageous.

After media outlets around the world aired footage of Hamas rockets being fired from civilian areas, Mahmoud Zahar, a Hamas co-founder, denied his terrorist organization does so. Journalist Mark Stone caught him in his lie.

The Palestinian residents of Gaza are being held hostage by Hamas. The world must speak out.
