IDF eliminates Islamic Jihad rocket cell commander in southern Gaza

The IDF struck in southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday and eliminated Ahmed Abu Mughaysib, head of a rocket-launching cell in Islamic Jihad. He was involved in planning attacks against IDF troops and Israeli civilians and participated in smuggling operations into Gaza. Overnight Tuesday, the IDF struck several Hamas terrorists in central Gaza who posed an immediate threat to troops, eliminating one and hitting additional terrorists. The strikes used precise munitions and aerial surveillance to mitigate civilian harm. IDF troops remain deployed under the ceasefire agreement and continue operating to remove immediate threats.
