Following the airstrike targeting Muhammad Deif, the commander of Hamas’s military wing, and Rafa’a Salameh, the commander of Hamas’s Khan Younis Brigade, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant is holding an assessment with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi and the head of the Shin Bet, Ronen Bar.
Gallant’s office says the assessment comes “in light of the latest developments in the Gaza Strip.”
