A senior Hamas operative in the terror group’s supply unit was killed in an airstrike in the Gaza Strip yesterday, the military says.

According to the IDF, Azmi Abu Daqqa was involved in smuggling weapons and funds for Hamas in Gaza.

The airstrike was carried out following intelligence provided by the Military Intelligence Directorate, the IDF says.

It releases footage of the strike.

Dozens more Hamas targets were hit across Gaza over the past day, including two “tactical-level” commanders, who were preparing to attack Israeli forces in the Rafah area, the military adds.
