The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the targeted killing of Muhammad Muhsin Namer Yazagi, a Hamas battalion commander, in an airstrike near Gaza City on Monday. Yazagi was involved in holding hostages during the war, including Emily Damari, Romi Gonen, and Matan Angrest, within the Gaza Brigade's area of responsibility.

In a separate airstrike on Tuesday near Sabra, Muhammad Fauzi Muhammad Awad Jamal, a militant from Hamas's military wing's "Daraj-Tuffah" battalion, was also eliminated. The IDF stated that these militants were preparing attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians and were working to restore Hamas's capabilities, systematically violating ceasefire agreements.
