The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Shin Bet confirmed an overnight attempt to strike senior Hamas official Ali Al-A'amoudi in Gaza City. The strike targeted Al-A'amoudi while he was inside a residential building used for terrorist activities. The IDF stated that the operation demonstrates Hamas's practice of hiding among civilians and using them as human shields. Al-A'amoudi is described as the right-hand man and personal assistant to Yahya Sinwar, and was involved in decision-making for the October 7th massacre. His past activities include the murder of four Israelis in the West Bank in 1993 and involvement in an incident in 1994 in Ramallah where Shin Bet coordinator Noam-Menachem Cohen was killed during an operation. Currently, Al-A'amoudi is considered the most senior Hamas figure in Gaza, directly involved in the organization's terrorist activities and its efforts to rebuild for war. The strike was carried out by air using precision munitions, with measures taken to minimize civilian harm. The results of the strike are currently under review.
