3 Years After October 7 Massacre, Israel Eliminates Senior Hamas Commander

Israel-Hamas War: Israel Kills Hamas Commander Linked to October 7 Attack

Israel has reportedly killed Mohammed al-Yazouri, a senior Hamas commander and head of the Khan Younis Brigade, who was allegedly involved in planning the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel.

The October 7 assault left around 1,200 people dead in Israel and triggered the devastating Israel-Hamas war. The reported killing of Yazouri is being seen as a major blow to Hamas, particularly to its military structure in southern Gaza.

Israeli authorities have described operations against senior Hamas figures as part of their effort to dismantle the group’s military leadership and target those responsible for the October 7 attack.
