Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz announced on Tuesday that Israel had arrested a prominent leader of Hamas. The announcement followed reports from Palestinian sources indicating that militants collaborating with Israel entered Gaza City and attempted to target a senior Hamas figure. According to these sources, Israel carried out airstrikes in the area after the group was exposed and engaged in a firefight.

Israeli Channel 12 reported that the individual arrested is the head of Hamas's General Security Service and was apprehended while injured. The Israeli military confirmed carrying out airstrikes in Gaza "to eliminate threats against security forces," without directly addressing the Palestinian reports about collaborating militants. The military spokesperson stated that no Israeli forces were injured during the operations.
