Hamas confirms its spokesperson, Abdel-Latif al-Qanoua, was killed in Gaza at dawn in a “direct” Israeli attack on his tent in the northern city of Jabalia, Al Jazeera reports.

The group said in a statement published on Telegram that al-Qanoua was “an example of steadfastness and dedication in serving his people and their cause”.

“The occupation’s targeting of the movement’s leaders and spokespeople will not break our will; rather, it will only increase our determination to continue on the path until the liberation of the land and the holy sites. The blood of the martyrs will remain the fuel and inspiration for the resistance until victory,” it added.
