Israeli official after targeting of Haddad: He was undermining Trump’s Gaza plan

Following Israel’s targeting of Hamas leader Izz al-Din Haddad, a senior Israeli official tells reporters in a statement that the head of Hamas’s military wing was one of the architects of the terror group’s October 7 onslaught and was personally involved in the kidnapping of Israeli and American citizens.

The official asserts that Haddad has been one of the main obstacles in the implementation of US President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan for ending the Gaza war, which includes the disarmament of Hamas.

“This arch terrorist has defiantly undermined President Trump’s and the Board of Peace efforts to disarm Hamas and demilitarize the Gaza Strip in order to create security and prosperity for Israelis and Gazans,” the senior Israeli official says.

“The Hamas leadership’s ongoing non-compliance will continue to have consequences,” the official warns.
