A Hamas terrorist who infiltrated Israel during the October 7 onslaught and held Emily Damari hostage in his home was killed in an Israeli airstrike last month, the IDF announces.
Nasr Ali Quneita was targeted in Gaza City on June 19, according to the IDF.
The military says Quneita was a member of Hamas’s military intelligence unit in the Sheikh Radwan Battalion, known in the IDF as the al-Furqan Battalion, and had invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, and held Damari hostage in his home at the start of the war.
The IDF releases footage of the strike.
Damari was freed in a hostage release-ceasefire deal in January this year.
