The IDF and Shin Bet confirmed that they struck in the Khan Younis area and killed Razak Sahil Suleiman Abu Shama, a Nukhba terrorist who took part in the October 7 massacre at the Re’im base. He previously served as Yahya Sinwar’s bodyguard.

The IDF destroyed a building in Jabalia that Hamas operatives had used as an ambush site and weapons depot. The structure was located near a school and a hospital. Several operatives were killed in the strike.

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir toured the Gaza Strip and made clear that the IDF will continue working to dismantle Hamas and prevent it from rebuilding its strength. He said the pursuit of the October 7 terrorists will continue until they are eliminated, even over the long term.

The IDF, guided by the Shin Bet, struck facilities used by Hamas. The sites reportedly stored rockets, weapons, explosive devices, grenades, and other combat equipment.

At least five kites were found in Kfar Aza and Nahal Oz, including one bearing the message: "We will never calm down." At the same time, the IDF and Shin Bet destroyed two Hamas weapons depots inside mosques.

Israel has given Hamas just days to halt the launch of balloons, kites, and drones from Gaza, warning of targeted killings and civilian evacuations from launch areas if the violations continue. Militants were killed in the Khan Younis and Deir al-Balah areas.

Defense Minister Israel Katz has instructed the IDF to respond forcefully to balloons, kites, and drones launched from Gaza toward communities near the border. Katz said the response could include targeted strikes, evacuating areas, and action against terrorist infrastructure.

The IDF and Shin Bet struck the al-Maghazi area of the Gaza Strip, killing Ismail Abu Ful, who commanded a Hamas weapons-production site. Abu Ful was actively involved in making explosive devices and anti-tank missiles.
