The IDF and ISA eliminated Muhammad Yazouri, commander of Hamas’ Khan Younis Brigade, in a precise strike in Khan Younis overnight Thursday. Yazouri previously served as the brigade’s deputy commander, Combat Support Battalion commander and head of intelligence. He was responsible for directing Hamas terrorists and attacks against IDF troops and Israeli civilians, and in recent months worked to advance dozens of attacks and rebuild the brigade’s capabilities. Two other Hamas terrorists, company commander Hudheifa Muammar and Muhammad Bahjat Rashi, were also eliminated in the strike.
