Launch slideshowBy NBC News staff and wire reportsGAZA - Six Palestinians suspected of giving information to Israel during its airstrike campaign have been killed in the Gaza Strip.

One of them was dragged after his death through the streets behind a convoy of motorcycles, as some people appeared to celebrate in scenes that a leading Hamas figure described as "completely unacceptable."

Citing an unidentified security source, Hamas' al-Aqsa radio station said the six men were shot dead on Tuesday after being "caught red-handed" working for Israel.

"They possessed hi-tech equipment and filming equipment to take footage of positions," al-Aqsa radio station said.

However, on Wednesday Hamas' deputy leader Moussa Abu Marzouk condemned what he called the "unlawful" killings, Reuters reported.
