The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the Shin Bet security agency announced earlier this week the elimination of Gamal Abu Seid, identified as the head of the Operations Department in Hamas's military wing. The strike occurred in Gaza City.

Abu Seid was responsible for holding Omer Shehadeh hostage during the war. He held several senior positions within Hamas over the years, including training military operatives outside the Gaza Strip, commanding an anti-tank missile battalion, and managing Hamas's liaisons with various countries.

According to a joint statement, Abu Seid had recently advanced terror plans against IDF forces and Israeli civilians. He was also reportedly working to restore Hamas's capabilities while systematically violating the ceasefire.

The elimination was carried out via an airstrike to neutralize the threat he posed.
