Hamas confirmed on Tuesday that four of its officials were killed in an Israeli strike in the Al-Mawasi area near Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. The organization identified the deceased as Hammam Jabr Abu Labada, Mahmoud Zahi Abu Na'ama, Muhammad Hamad al-Sultan, and Samir Azzat Adwan.
The Union of Public Sector Employees in Gaza described the incident as a "massacre in which civilian employees of the Ministry of Economy were killed." However, a photograph of one of the individuals, Mahmoud Abu Na'ama, shows him in Hamas police uniform with rank insignia, suggesting a security role rather than a purely civilian one.
