IDF kills three Hamas commanders in Gaza in 48 hours

The IDF confirmed that three Hamas commanders were eliminated since the start of the week in strikes carried out across the Gaza Strip, including a Nukhba commander who raided the Sufa outpost and a platoon commander who invaded Israeli territory during the October 7th massacre.

According to the IDF Spokesperson, Anas Akram Mohammed Hamaidah was eliminated on Sunday in a strike in the Khan Yunis area. Hamaidah was a Nukhba commander who raided the Sufa outpost during the October 7th massacre.

On the same day, the terrorist Ashraf Mahmoud Youssef Dahlan was eliminated in a separate strike in the Gaza City area. Dahlan was a platoon commander in the Eastern Jabaliya Battalion, and he too invaded Israel during Hamas's massacre.

In addition, the IDF reported that two days ago, Mahmoud Othman Abdullah Alwan was eliminated in the Gaza City area. Alwan was a Nukhba commander in the Western Jabaliya Battalion.

"Throughout the war, and particularly in recent times, the terrorists advanced terror plans against IDF forces and Israeli citizens and worked to restore the capabilities of the Hamas terror organization, while systematically violating the ceasefire," the IDF stated. "The terrorists were eliminated from the air in order to remove the threat they posed. IDF forces under Southern Command are deployed in the area in accordance with the agreement and will continue to act to remove any threat."
