The IDF said a strike in Khan Younis on Saturday killed Yasser Abu al-Khair and Mohammed al-Din, both Nukhba operatives in Hamas’s military wing. According to the military, the two had recently advanced attacks against IDF troops and Israeli civilians and worked to rebuild Hamas capabilities in violation of the ceasefire. The IDF said the strike used precise munitions and aerial surveillance to reduce harm to civilians. It added that Southern Command troops remain deployed in the Gaza Strip under the agreement and will continue acting to remove immediate threats.
