The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the Shin Bet security agency announced on Wednesday the elimination of Musa Abd Muhammad Hamuda, a Hamas Nukhba terrorist. Hamuda was involved in planning the explosive device attack that killed four tank crew members from the 52nd Battalion in September 2025. The strike occurred earlier this week in the Gaza City area, as a joint operation between the IDF and Shin Bet.
The attack in which Hamuda was killed took place on Sunday. The terrorist was targeted in an airstrike, according to the IDF and Shin Bet. Hamuda had been active against IDF forces in the Gaza Strip throughout the war, participating in other terror operations and working to restore Hamas's military capabilities. He was also reportedly advancing terror plots against IDF forces and Israeli civilians.
The IDF stated that Hamuda's elimination represents a significant "closing of the circle" for the 162nd Division, whose soldiers were killed in the September 2025 attack. The 215th Fire Brigade, which operates under the same division, carried out the strike that eliminated Hamuda.
Security officials emphasized that Hamuda's actions systematically violated the ceasefire, and the strike was intended to neutralize the threat he posed. The IDF and Shin Bet affirmed that Southern Command forces remain deployed in the area in accordance with the ceasefire agreement and will act against any security threats that emerge.
