IDF and Shin Bet intensified strikes across the Gaza Strip on Monday, carrying out four targeted liquidations that killed at least four Hamas commanders and operatives.
IDF and Shin Bet intensified targeted strikes across the Gaza Strip on Monday, carrying out four targeted liquidations by midday. At least four mid-level commanders and Hamas force-buildup operatives were killed in the airstrikes, which spanned from the northern Strip to the south.
Over the past few weeks, the IDF and Shin Bet have ramped up operations to eliminate Hamas terrorists in Gaza, focusing heavily on individuals involved in force buildup and restoring military capabilities. Concurrently, the Shin Bet's Nili unit continues efforts to track down and eliminate terrorists who participated in the October 7 massacre.
Another operational arm targets Hamas's weapons procurement infrastructure. Over the past two weeks, the air force has struck some twenty Hamas weapons depots, workshops, and manufacturing laboratories to degrade the group's capacity to rearm and rebuild combat formations.
On Monday morning, the military escalated the scope of daily strikes. Within hours, the air force hit personnel targets in Deir al-Balah, Daraj Tuffah, and Gaza City near Shifa Hospital—where the IDF operated against a weapons depot just a week earlier. At noon, a strike in Khan Yunis targeted a militant hiding inside a tent. A military official stated that all strikes were executed based on precise intelligence provided by Shin Bet and Aman.
