Israeli forces struck in the Deir al-Balah area yesterday (Sunday) and killed Wael Musa Khaled Ladawi, the internal security commander for Hamas’s terror organization in the central camps.
The internal security mechanism is a covert and central apparatus within Hamas.

Under Ladawi’s command, the mechanism collected intelligence for senior Hamas officials, helping them make decisions and advance and execute terror plots against Israel. The IDF said: “IDF forces under Southern Command are deployed in the area in accordance with the agreement and will continue to act to remove any threat.”
Alongside Ladawi’s killing, Israeli forces yesterday also killedOmar Ahmed Abu Qasem in central Gaza, a battalion-level sniper commander in Hamas’s military wing. According to the announcement, he advanced terror plots against IDF forces in recent months as well.
