IDF and Shin Bet Target Senior Hamas Official in Gaza City
Editorial illustration generated by baba News — not a photograph of the event.

The Israeli military and the Shin Bet attempted to strike a senior Hamas official, Ali al-A'amoudi, in Gaza City overnight. The IDF stated this incident demonstrates Hamas's practice of hiding among civilians and using them as human shields. Al-A'amoudi was described as Yahya Sinwar's right-hand man and personal assistant, involved in decision-making for the October 7th massacre. His past activities include involvement in the murder of four Israelis in the West Bank in 1993 and an incident in 1994 in Ramallah where Shin Bet coordinator Noam-Menachem Cohen was killed during operational activity. The military considers al-A'amoudi the most senior Hamas figure in Gaza currently, actively engaged in terrorist operations and rebuilding the movement for war. The strike was conducted from the air using precision munitions, with measures taken to minimize civilian casualties. The results of the strike are currently under review.
