The head of the Shin Bet security agency says Israeli forces have killed over the past week 25 terrorists who participated in the October 7 onslaught.
“This is one of the goals we have set for ourselves and we owe it to the residents of the [Gaza border communities],” Ronen Bar says during a visit to troops in southern Gaza’s Rafah over the weekend.
Bar held an assessment with the chief of the Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, and the commander of the 162nd Division, Brig. Gen. Itzik Cohen, the Shin Bet says.
Commenting on the airstrike yesterday that targeted the head of Hamas’s military wing, Muhammad Deif, and another top commander, Bar says: “The attack in Khan Younis is the result of surgical intelligence, which begins with the effort you have been making here in recent months.”
