Tuesday saw
israel carry out its onslaught in Gaza and claim that one of its
fighter aircraft had killed a senior Hamas
leader who was in charge of the
october 7 attack.
israel Defence Forces (IDF) said on X that they had removed Ibrahim Biari, the
leader of the Central Jabaliya Battalion of Hamas.
The IDF said that an underground terrorist infrastructure "collapsed following the strike" and that the attack "damaged Hamas's command and control in the area and eliminated a large number of
terrorists who were with Biari." "The IDF reiterates its call to the residents of the area to move south for their safety," the message stated.
In addition to Biari, at least 50 Palestinians were also killed in the IDF raids, which struck a heavily populated refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, according to Reuters. The report also stated that medical staff found it difficult to set up operating rooms in hospital hallways and treat the victims.
The attack on the Jabalia refugee camp by
israel has been condemned by humanitarian organisations, who claim that the airstrike should serve as a "wake-up call" for
international leaders to ensure a truce in Gaza. At least 50
people were reportedly murdered, including 19 relatives of an Al Jazeera staff member, according to the head of the adjacent Indonesian Hospital, while several more were injured.
