The Israeli military (IDF) and the Shin Bet security agency announced last week the elimination of two terrorists involved in transferring millions of shekels to Hamas's military wing. According to a joint statement, the two terrorists moved funds from Iran and Turkey to the organization during the ongoing conflict.
On Wednesday, the IDF conducted an airstrike in the Gaza City area, eliminating Alaa Ibrahim Nemer Arshi, identified as a Hamas military wing squad commander. The day prior, in the Nuseirat area, Karem Riyad Hassan Abu Batichan, a terrorist from Palestinian Islamic Jihad who facilitated fund transfers to Hamas, was killed.
The funds transferred by these individuals reportedly aided Hamas in recent efforts to rebuild its military capabilities and advance terror operations against Israeli forces and civilians, in violation of the ceasefire. The strikes were carried out by air to neutralize the threat.
In parallel, on Thursday, the IDF and Shin Bet attacked and destroyed a Hamas military wing weapons depot in central Gaza from the air. The depot contained various armaments, including Kalashnikov rifles and rockets.
Security forces stated their continued determination to degrade the military and funding capabilities of terror organizations in Gaza, thwarting any attempts to rebuild or stockpile weapons for attacks against the IDF. Southern Command forces are deployed in the area and will continue to operate to remove any threat. This operation coincides with a broad counter-terrorism operation launched by the IDF in the Hebron area following a deadly shooting attack last Friday that claimed the lives of two soldiers.
