The IDF says a member of Hamas’s elite Nukhba forces and another operative who participated in the October 7 massacre were nabbed at a school in Gaza City’s Rimal neighborhood.
The pair, along with several other Hamas members, were captured during a raid on the school on Friday, during which troops of the 401st Armored Brigade killed “many” more operatives, according to the IDF.
Those who were caught by the soldiers were questioned by the Military Intelligence Directorate’s Unit 504, the IDF says.
