Earlier, 27-year-old Muhsin Mustafa and his 23-year-old cousin Ahmed Sharif posted videos on their social media pages showing an attack on a police station in the Ma'sar district. They said that those who were dissatisfied with the closure of the Rafah border crossing between Palestine and Egypt and the siege of Gaza were being severely tortured and even killed in police stations. The two activists added that they wanted to record these incidents and bring them to the public. Muhsin and Sharif went missing after this incident.
