The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the elimination of two senior Palestinian militant commanders in Gaza: Muhammad Jamal Mahmoud Abu al-Shaar, a Hamas unit commander, and Musab Abd al-Jalil Sakib Balbisi, an Islamic Jihad military wing commander.
Abu al-Shaar was involved in the October 7 massacre, infiltrating Kibbutz Be'eri and participating in the abduction of Sharon Hertzman-Avigdori, Noam Avigdori, Adi Shoham, Na'ave Shoham, Yahel Shoham, and Shoshan Haran to Gaza. Balbisi was targeted in a separate strike in Jabalia on the same day and also participated in the initial attacks on Israeli border communities on October 7.
According to an IDF statement, these commanders were preparing to carry out new terrorist attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians, systematically violating the ceasefire. Their elimination was carried out to neutralize an immediate threat they posed.
The IDF emphasized that extensive measures were taken to minimize civilian casualties before the strikes, including the use of precision munitions and aerial surveillance.
