IDF Eliminates Hamas Commander Holding Seven Israeli Hostages
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) conducted an airstrike in the Gaza City area over the weekend, eliminating Mahmoud Abdel Fattah Awad, a commander in Hamas's military wing. Awad had been involved in holding seven Israeli hostages captive in an underground tunnel since the start of the war. The hostages were identified as Daniela Gilboa, Karina Ariev, Doron Steinbacher, Naama Levy, Ziv Berman, Omri Miran, and Eitan Mor.
In recent times, Awad had been actively promoting terror plots against IDF forces and Israeli civilians. He also worked to rebuild Hamas's capabilities, systematically violating the ceasefire. The elimination was carried out via an airstrike.
