The IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) carried out an airstrike targeting Hamas operatives at a command and coordination facility in Jabalyia, which also functioned as a primary gathering hub for members of the terror group in that region.
After conducting a detailed intelligence assessment, the IDF confirmed that Shadi Diab Abd Al-Hamid Falouji, a Hamas terrorist from the East Jabalyia Battalion who had crossed into Israel and took part in the October 7 massacre, was killed in the strike.
The operation also took out several other high-ranking Hamas figures: Mohammed Sharif, a member of the group’s General Security Apparatus who was involved in the manipulative public display during the release of hostage Agam Berger; Mohammed Hani Atiya Daour, the leader of Hamas’s Rocket and Mortar Unit; and Mohammed Issa Mahmoud Askari, a terrorist tied to both the Northern Brigade Rocket Unit and the General Security Apparatus.
The IDF emphasized that it had implemented a range of precautionary measures to reduce the risk to innocent civilians prior to carrying out the attack. These included aerial reconnaissance and additional intelligence efforts to ensure precision.
