Israeli forces eliminated Mohammed Mahmoud Marshad al-Qadi in a strike in the Khan Younis area of southern Gaza this week, the IDF and Shin Bet announced Wednesday. Al-Qadi commanded a Nukhba company in Hamas’s military wing and led the raid on the Sufa outpost during the October 7 massacre.
Throughout the war, al-Qadi was involved in holding hostages in Hamas captivity in the Rafah area. More recently, he led training operations for Hamas terrorists and worked to rebuild the organization’s capabilities. Al-Qadi advanced terror plots against IDF forces and Israeli civilians, systematically violating the ceasefire.
