Israeli Air Force pilots conducted a three-week, round-the-clock vigil with guided missiles, awaiting an error from Hamas commander Mohammed Abu Ismail. Abu Ismail, who led Hamas's Khan Yunis brigade, is believed by Israel to be critically wounded following an airstrike on Thursday night, November 12. The strike occurred at Nasser Hospital in the Gaza Strip, where Abu Ismail reportedly arrived at his command post shortly after 1 a.m. Israeli intelligence assessed that his injuries were severe enough to question his survival. According to Maariv, the brigade's headquarters was located on the third floor of the hospital, and was immediately evacuated after the strike. The IDF stated that Hamas had been using the second floor of Nasser Hospital as a military headquarters, with access restricted to civilians. Israel claims it repeatedly demanded an end to military activity within the hospital, including recent warnings, before the strike. Abu Ismail had taken command of the Khan Yunis brigade in September, succeeding Mohammed al-Yazouri. The IDF and Shin Bet also reported the recent elimination of two other Hamas military wing commanders: Muhammad Halawa, responsible for military intelligence, and Ahmad Zahir Fuad Abu-Auda, who commanded the engineering unit. These strikes took place in the Gaza City area and Khan Yunis.
