The IDF and Shin Bet confirm killing three sons of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in a strike in Gaza City’s Shati camp earlier today, saying the three were operatives in the terror group.
According to the IDF and Shin Bet, Amir Haniyeh was a squad commander in the Hamas military wing, while Hazem and Mohammad Haniyeh were lower-ranking operatives, also in the military wing.

The IDF says that the trio were “en route to carry out terror activity in the area of central Gaza” when they were struck.
A military source says the IDF is aware of reports that additional members of the Haniyeh family, including a minor, were hit in the strike. Hamas media said two of Haniyeh’s grandchildren were killed and a third was wounded.
