IDF eliminates five Hamas, PIJ terrorists in Gaza airstrikes

Five Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terrorists were eliminated by the IDF in two airstrikes in Gaza earlier this week, the Israeli military said.

On Sunday, the IDF struck a meeting in Khan Younis where three terrorists from PIJ’s military wing were allegedly advancing attacks. Those killed were engineering operative Muhammad Abu Hajjaj, deputy squad commander Yousef Abu Razak, and rocket array operative Abdelhamid Jadallah.

On Monday, a strike in the southern Gaza Strip killed Nukhba terrorists Salah al-Din Iyad Abd al-Hamid and Izz al-Din Iyad Diab Barhoum of Hamas’ military wing, whom the IDF said had recently advanced attacks against Israeli troops and civilians and worked to restore the groups’ military capabilities.
