He served as a commander in the Nukhba unit that raided the Re’im base during the October 7 massacre. He also served as Yahya Sinwar’s bodyguard.
In another strike in the Khan Younis area, Hazem Musa, a Nukhba terrorist from Hamas’s military wing who raided the Re’im base during the October 7 massacre, was killed.
According to the IDF, the terrorists had recently advanced terror plans against IDF troops and Israeli civilians and attempted to rebuild the organization’s capabilities, in a systematic violation of the ceasefire. The strike was carried out to remove the threat.
