Editorial illustration generated by baba News — not a photograph of the event.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) conducted an airstrike in the Gaza City area on Wednesday, eliminating Ammar Mahmoud Muhammad Sharafi, identified as a squad commander in Hamas's military wing. The IDF stated that Sharafi had recently been advancing terror plots against IDF forces and Israeli civilians, and was working to restore Hamas's capabilities, systematically violating the ceasefire agreement. The strike was carried out to neutralize the threat he posed. Prior to the attack, measures were taken to minimize civilian casualties, including the use of precision munitions and aerial surveillance. IDF forces in the Southern Command are deployed in the area in accordance with the agreement and will continue to operate to remove immediate threats.
