Israel Strikes Gaza, Eliminating Hamas Operatives Involved in Terror Financing
The Israeli military conducted airstrikes in the Gaza Strip, eliminating two Hamas operatives, including a commander identified as Jabir Makbel. Makbel led the 'Makbel' exchange network, which allegedly transferred millions of shekels in foreign currency to Hamas to fund operatives, rebuild military infrastructure, and advance terror plots. The IDF stated that Makbel was a terrorist in Hamas's military wing.
In a separate strike in Khan Younis, the IDF eliminated Hassan Albata, a sniper operative in Hamas's military wing. The military indicated that these operatives were recently working to restore Hamas's capabilities and promote terror against Israeli forces and civilians, while systematically violating the ceasefire.
Forces from the Southern Command remain deployed in the area and are committed to thwarting any threats. The operations underscore ongoing efforts to disrupt Hamas's financial and operational activities.
