The Israeli military has said that it struck senior Hamas commanders who were operating in a command centre embedded inside a designated humanitarian area in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, Reuters reports.
“These terrorists were directly involved in the execution of the October 7th massacre and have been recently operating to carry out terror activities,” it said.
The military added that the casualty figure published by authorities in Gaza, “do not align with the information held by the IDF, the precise munitions used, and the accuracy of the strike.”
Those targeted in the strike included the heads of Hamas aerial unit and observation and targets department, the military said.
