Hamas confirms Palestinian killed in IDF retaliatory fire was its ‘fighter’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Hamas terror group’s military wing confirms the man killed in Israel’s artillery strike in Gaza was a member of the organization.
The Hamas operative was identified by Gaza’s health ministry as 24-year-old Mahmoud Abed al-Nabahin.
On its website, Hamas’ Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades says al-Nabahin was a “fighter” who was “martyred” in the Israeli attack on an observation post near the el-Bureij refugee camp, in a retaliatory strike following sniper fire from Gaza that wounded an IDF officer.
