The Israeli army said that it has destroyed 150 underground targets in the northern Gaza Strip, including “terrorists'” tunnels.
According to a statement on X, some Hamas members lost their lives during the nighttime airstrikes.
Although Al Jazeera was unable to independently verify the report, the Israeli army claims that its fighter jets struck Asem Abu Rakaba, the head of the Hamas Aerial Array, who was in charge of Hamas’s drones, UAVs, paragliders, aerial detection, and aerial defence.
Abu Rakaba also reportedly participated in the planning of the surprise attacks inside Israel earlier this month.
Additionally, there was no immediate comment by Hamas.
