The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced the elimination of two operatives involved in transferring millions of shekels from Iran and Turkey to Hamas's military wing during the ongoing war. The two were killed in separate airstrikes last week in Gaza City and the Nuseirat area in central Gaza.
One of those eliminated in Gaza City was Alaa Ibrahim Nimer Arshi, identified by the IDF as a squad commander in Hamas's military wing. The other, Karim Riyad Hassan Abu Batikhan, an operative for Palestinian Islamic Jihad, was killed in Nuseirat. The IDF stated that these funds have recently aided Hamas in rebuilding its military capabilities and advancing operations against IDF forces and Israeli civilians, in systematic violation of the ceasefire.
In parallel operations, the IDF and Shin Bet destroyed a weapons depot used by Hamas in central Gaza last week. The cache contained various armaments, including Kalashnikov rifles and rockets. The military stated the depot was used for storing different types of weaponry.
