The IDF and Shin Bet announce that a strike yesterday against a Hamas command center in northern Gaza’s Jabalia killed at least four operatives, including a terrorist who participated in the October 7 onslaught.
The strike, according to Palestinian media, hit a UNRWA clinic and killed at least eight people.
According to the military, among those killed in the strike was Shadi Diab Abd al-Hamid Falouji, a member of Hamas’s East Jabalia Battalion, who invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, and participated in the onslaught.
Additionally, the IDF says the strike killed Mohammed Sharif, a member of Hamas’s general security mechanism, who was involved in the release ceremony of hostage soldier Agam Berger; Mohammed Hani Atiya Daour, a Hamas operative who headed a rocket and mortar squad; and Mohammed Issa Mahmoud Askari, member of a rocket unit in Hamas’s Northern Brigade and a member of the general security mechanism.
The military says it was able to confirm their deaths “following an intelligence review.”
