The IDF eliminated a Hamas commander who infiltrated Israel during the October 7 massacre, along with an Islamic Jihad terrorist, in separate strikes in Gaza on Thursday. The Hamas commander, Mohammed Mohammed Abd al-Khalek Hala, was targeted in northern Gaza. The IDF said he served in Hamas’ weapons production headquarters, helping produce weapons and advance the group’s military buildup across the Gaza Strip. In a separate strike in the Khan Yunis area, the IDF killed Ahmad Jabrin Tawfiq Dalhan, a terrorist in Islamic Jihad’s military wing.
