IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari in a press conference confirms that the military targeted the deputy commander of Hamas’s military wing, in an Israeli airstrike in central Gaza early Sunday morning.
Hagari does not say if Marwan Issa was killed in the strike. He says the IDF is still looking into the the aftermath of the bombing.
“When we know for certain, we will update the public,” he says.
The IDF releases footage of the strike against the underground Hamas site in Nuseirat where Issa was believed to be.
Other Hamas commanders were together with Issa in the tunnel, Hagari says, adding that, according to the IDF’s intelligence, no hostages were held in the area.
