A Hamas terrorist who invaded Israel during the October 7, 2023, onslaught was killed in an airstrike this week, the IDF announces.

Akram Abu Madi, a member of Hamas’s military wing, recently worked to restore the terror group’s capabilities and advance attacks against IDF troops and Israeli civilians, the military says.

He was therefore targeted in a strike on Sunday in southern Gaza, according to the IDF.

The IDF also publishes a photo of Abu Madi during the October 7 onslaught.
