Israeli forces have eliminated two key terrorists responsible for transferring millions of shekels from Iran and Turkey to Hamas's military wing. The strikes, which occurred last week in the Gaza Strip, also resulted in the destruction of a weapons depot used by the terrorist organization.
One of the eliminated operatives was identified as Alaa Ibrahim Nemer Arshi, a Hamas cell commander and a significant figure in the group's military apparatus in the Gaza City area. He was killed in an airstrike in Gaza City last Wednesday.
The second operative, Karim Riyad Hassan Abu Batikhan, described as a terrorist from the Islamic Jihad organization, was killed in the Nuseirat area last Tuesday. Abu Batikhan was directly involved in funneling funds to Hamas's military wing, thereby aiding in the financing of terror operations.
These operatives transferred millions of shekels throughout the ongoing conflict, which Hamas intended to use for rebuilding its military capabilities and advancing terror attacks against Israeli forces and civilians. The airstrikes were aimed at neutralizing the immediate threat posed by these individuals. Additionally, a joint operation by the IDF and Shin Bet last Thursday in central Gaza led to the aerial destruction of a Hamas weapons cache containing various armaments, including Kalashnikov rifles and rockets intended for terror activities.
