The Israeli military continued targeted operations in the Gaza Strip over the weekend, announcing the elimination of several key militants from Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ). On Saturday, Israeli security forces conducted an airstrike in Gaza City, targeting a meeting of Hamas Nukhba terrorists. The strike resulted in the deaths of several militants, including Maad Mazen Hamza Hasuna and Muhammad Riyad Khader Arhim, both identified as Nukhba operatives in Hamas's military wing.
In a separate operation earlier in the week, the IDF eliminated Muhammad Walid Saadi Nakhala, identified as a commander in the anti-tank missile array of PIJ's military wing. This strike occurred in the Daraj Tuffah area in northern Gaza.
The IDF stated that the eliminated militants had been advancing terror plans against Israeli forces and civilians and were actively working to restore Hamas's military capabilities, in violation of ceasefire agreements. The strikes were intended to immediately neutralize the threat posed by these terror leaders.
Security officials emphasized that stringent measures were taken to minimize civilian casualties before the strikes, including the use of precision-guided munitions, intelligence gathering, and continuous aerial surveillance. The military affirmed its commitment to continuing operations to remove any immediate threats to Israeli civilians and security forces.
