IDF Kills Two Hamas Engineers in Gaza Strike
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced on Sunday, September 13, that two individuals identified as militants in Hamas's engineering unit were killed in the Gaza City area. The IDF identified the deceased as Mahmoud Hassan Ali Abu Nada and Abd ar-Rahim Ahmad Khalil Huwar.
According to the IDF, both men were recently involved in weapons development and production, planning attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians, and working to restore Hamas's military capabilities. The army stated that their activities constituted a systematic violation of the ceasefire and that the strike was carried out to neutralize an immediate threat.
The IDF asserted that measures were taken to minimize civilian risk prior to the strike, including the use of precision munitions and aerial surveillance. Palestinian sources reported earlier that Abu Nada and Huwar died when their vehicle was struck in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood in western Gaza City. Abu Nada was also identified as the imam of the "Ar-Rantisi" mosque in the Jabalia refugee camp.
