On Monday, the IDF struck central Gaza and killed Muhannad Asaad Mahmoud Abu Ghazal, a Hamas Nukhba cell commander who infiltrated the Kissufim area during the October 7 massacre. A second strike Tuesday in northern Gaza killed Raed Hani Mohammed Al-Amsi, an aerial-surveillance platoon commander in Hamas's aerial array, and Nabhan Mohammed Nabhan Al-Amsi, head of the military intelligence desk in Hamas's Gaza Brigade. The IDF said all three had recently advanced attacks against troops and Israeli civilians. It said the precise airstrikes followed measures to limit civilian harm, and Southern Command forces remain deployed under the ceasefire agreement.
