Israeli forces eliminated two murderous terrorists in Gaza yesterday (Thursday), including a Hamas terrorist who participated in the October 7 massacre. The killers, from Hamas and Islamic Jihad, were taken out in precision airstrikes in northern and southern Gaza.
In the northern Gaza strike, forces eliminated Mohammed Mohammed Abd al-Halaq Hala, a so-called ‘commander’ in Hamas’ terror group. According to the IDF, the terrorist infiltrated Israeli territory during the October 7 massacre manufactured weapons, advancing Hamas’s armed buildup in the Strip.
In a separate strike in the Khan Younis area of southern Gaza, forces took out Ahmed Gabrin Tawfiq Dalhan, a terrorist in Islamic Jihad’s military wing. Both terrorists were recently advancing terror operations against IDF forces and Israeli civilians and were trying to rebuild their organizations’ capabilities, in systematic violation of the ceasefire.
The IDF emphasized that the terrorists were eliminated from the air to remove the immediate threat they posed. The military added that IDF forces in the Southern Command remain deployed in the area in accordance with the agreements and will continue to act decisively to remove any threat to Israel’s security.
