- The Gaza Strip; armed presence reported in the West Bank and in Palestinian camps in Lebanon is not established as part of this organisation's structure and is not represented.
- Historique notable
- The Qassam Brigades are Hamas's armed wing, distinct from the political bureau that the movement's Shura Council elects; the armed wing has its own military council. Before October 2023 they were organised in five territorial brigades — North Gaza, Gaza City, Central, Khan Younis and Rafah — with about two dozen battalions below them and specialised formations alongside; that structure is recorded as historical. Through 2023–25 the IDF repeatedly announced brigades and battalions "dismantled"; those are the IDF's claims, not independently verified. After the October 2025 ceasefire, analysts reported continuing recruitment and slow rearmament. On 15 May 2026 Israel killed the armed wing's commander in a strike on Gaza City, and Hamas confirmed his death the next day; succession since is opaque. On 20 July 2026 the movement's Shura Council elected a new political bureau head. On 30 July 2026 Hamas and other factions approved the Board of Peace disarmament document — a roadmap in which a national committee would inventory and store weapons under international verification, tied to Israeli withdrawal — with a Hamas official saying it would not be implemented if Israel failed its obligations. The United States has designated HAMAS a Foreign Terrorist Organization effective 8 October 1997 (62 FR 52650), an entry that names the Qassam Brigades among its aliases.
- Points forts
- An organisation that has survived the loss of successive commanders and most of its pre-war structure, with continuing recruitment reported and a political movement that negotiates on its behalf. No strength or arsenal figure is carried.
- Limites
- Its pre-war brigade and battalion structure cannot be presented as current: Israeli claims of dismantlement and reports of regeneration both exist, and no independent 2026 evidence establishes the present form. Whether the disarmament roadmap was delivered or implemented after July 2026 is not confirmed by any source Vigil holds. Its command after May 2026 is not published.

Filiation et histoire institutionnelle
Formal parent institution: Hamas (political bureau and Shura Council). The movement's Shura Council elects the political bureau, which by the movement's account has primacy over the armed wing; in practice Gaza's military leadership weighed heavily in decisions during 2023–25.
