Israeli Air Force fighter jets dropped over 50 munitions in 30 seconds in the strike that eliminated Hamas leader Muhammad Sinwar in southern Gaza on May 13, according to the military.
The strike targeted a tunnel system that ran underneath the European Hospital in Khan Younis. Alongside Sinwar, the strike also killed Muhammad Shabana, commander of the terror group’s Rafah Brigade, and Mahdi Quara, commander of the South Khan Younis Battalion.
According to the IDF, the “precise” missiles hit the underground Hamas command center and tunnel system, killing the senior commanders, without harming the hospital itself.
