Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is holding an assessment at the IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv, his office says, following this morning’s airstrike targeting the chief of Hamas’s military wing in Gaza.
The meeting is attended by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, Mossad director David Barnea, the head of the Shin Bet Ronen Bar, National Security Advisor Tzachi Hanegbi, and several more military and defense officials.
The meeting comes following a separate assessment Gallant held with military and defense officials.
“The defense minister expressed his appreciation for the determined action of the security bodies to eliminate senior Hamas officials, and praised the activities of the forces that are being carried out all the time, all over the Gaza Strip,” Gallant’s office says.
