Israeli army strikes Hamas group, leader of another group in Gaza

Israeli warplanes have hit the head of the military wing of the radical group ‘Popular Resistance Committees’ in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, as well as attacked a group of radicals of the ruling Hamas movement in the enclave, the army's press service reported.

"IDF (the Israel Defense Forces) fighter jets, based on ISA (the Israel Securities Authority) intelligence, struck the head of the military branch of the 'Popular Resistance Committees' terror organization in Rafah, Rafat Harb Hussein Abu Hilal. During the fighting, numerous Hamas terror operatives belonging to the 'Nukbha' forces, who led the barbaric invasion of the communities surrounding the Gaza Strip, were targeted. More than ten terrorists were targeted in a precision aerial strike," the statement said. It also reported that the IDF destroyed terrorist infrastructure in the Gaza Strip and eliminated terrorist operatives. "During the last day, the IDF struck hundreds of Hamas terror structures, including <...> anti-tank missile launching posts, terror tunnel shafts, intelligence infrastructure, and additional command centers. Dozens of mortar launchers were also struck, the majority of which were destroyed immediately after launching shells at Israel," the military added.

 

"So far, 4,629 of the injured have been taken to hospitals. Twelve of them are in critical condition, two hundred and seventy-nine are in severe condition," Israel's Health Ministry said in an official statement earlier today. On October 18, the Health Ministry reported that at least 4,475 Israeli citizens had suffered as a result of the Hamas attack. As many as 1,500 Israelis died in the conflict.
