Everyone should be dancing the Horah. Cleaning up these vermin has been far too long in coming.
The IDF cleared the event for publishing on Monday morning.
Issa was reportedly hiding in Nusirat, in central Gaza, at the time of the strike, and it is unclear whether the Hamas leader was killed in the event. Maariv, citing Palestinian sources, reported that Hamas was concerned about the status of the terror chief.
15 TERRORISTS KILLED IN CENTRAL GAZA
Separately, in central Gaza, the IDF eliminated 15 terrorists through close-quarters engagements, sniper fire, and airstrikes, the IDF stated on Monday.
In one encounter, Israeli troops identified a terror cell carrying what were suspected to be weapons out of a Hamas military compound in the area. After observing the subsequent activities of the cell, the terror cell was eliminated by a strike from an IDF aircraft, the military noted.
The IDF similarly eliminated another terror cell that was observing the Israeli troops in the area.
The Israeli forces also operated in the area of Hamad in southern Gaza, where special forces units conducted raids on a number of civilian residences that were being used for terror purposes, the IDF reported.
During these raids, the IDF troops arrested Hamas terrorists and found weapons, ammunition, and other military ordnance. In one operation, an anti-tank missile was launched at the soldiers, however not injuries among IDF personnel were reported as a consequence.
This is a developing story.
