| [IsraelTimes] The IDF says it struck over 150 targets in the Gaza Strip in the past 72 hours, including cells of terror operatives, buildings used by terror groups, and other infrastructure. The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza reported nearly 200 dead in the past three days. The figures have not been verified and do not differentiate between civilians and combatants. A drone strike yesterday in central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah killed a Hamas commander, identified by the IDF as Nasser Juma. The military says he was a veteran member of Hamas’s rocket production unit. IDF, Shin Bet say Gaza City strike killed Hamas terrorist involved in kidnapping Yaffa Adar [IsraelTimes] The IDF and Shin Bet announce that a Hamas terrorist involved in the kidnapping of Yaffa Adar, 85, during the October 7, 2023, onslaught was killed in an airstrike in Gaza City yesterday. The terrorist is identified as Mohammed Rasmi Marzouk Baraka, a member of Hamas’s intelligence division. Baraka can be seen in infamous footage showing the abduction of Adar from Kibbutz Nir Oz. Adar was released from captivity in November 2023. The second terrorist in the car, Asim Hatab, was reportedly killed several months following Adar’s abduction, though the military has not confirmed this. The military does not say where in Gaza City the strike took place yesterday. Hamas authorities reported yesterday that a strike on a former school in the neighborhood of Tuffah in Gaza City killed at least 15, and another strike near a market in the city killed a further 33. The figures have not been verified and do not differentiate between civilians and combatants. The IDF says Hamas “systematically violates international law, while cynically using civilian infrastructure for terror activity.” Online footage said to show Hamas shooting, beating Gazans accused of stealing food [IsraelTimes] Footage from the Gaza Strip circulating on social media shows armed men shooting and beating bound individuals. Users claim that these are Hamas members targeting those suspected of stealing food. A Palestinian website recently reported that Hamas has reestablished a unit that previously operated in Gaza to enforce order, in light of increasing theft due to the food shortage in the Strip.
