To neutralize a threat: The IDF eliminated two terrorists from the Hamas terror organization, including a commander who participated in transferring millions of shekels to the organization

The terrorist led the ‘Makbel’ currency exchange network, which transferred millions of shekels in foreign currency to the Hamas terrorist organization. These funds are used by the organization to finance terrorists, restore military infrastructure, and advance terror plots against our forces. The IDF continues to concentrate efforts on harming the financing capabilities of the military activities of the Hamas terrorist organization, to prevent the restoration of its infrastructure and military capabilities. In another attack yesterday (Thursday) in the Khan Yunis area, the IDF eliminated the terrorist Hassan Albata, a sniper operative in the military wing of the Hamas terrorist organization. Recently, terrorists have advanced terror plots against IDF forces and citizens of the State of Israel and have acted to restore the organization’s capabilities, while systematically violating the ceasefire. The terrorists were eliminated from the air in order to remove the threat. IDF forces in the Southern Command are deployed in the area in accordance with the agreement and will continue to act to remove any immediate threat.
