The IDF reported that a terrorist who perpetrated October 7th atrocities against Israelis was eliminated by a “precise IAF airstrike.”
The terrorist was hiding in a school in Khan Younis.
There were reports that civilians were killed in the strike adjacent to the Alawda School in the south of Khan Yunis, and the IDF said it is investigating the claim.
Hamas uses the deaths of its own civilians as a strategy in the public relations war and to deter Israeli forces from attacking. It is for this reason the terror group consistently embeds itself within schools and hospitals.
Hama Health Ministry reported that 30 civilians were killed, but the claim has not been verified.
