The operation, which also involved the IDF Southern Command, successfully apprehended the head of Hamas's internal security in the Gaza Strip. Netanyahu described the operation as "audacious and successful."
Special forces from the Shin Bet infiltrated a building in Gaza City to make the arrest, while the Israeli Air Force simultaneously struck targets to neutralize threats to the engaged forces. No Israeli soldiers were injured during the operation.
