The Israeli military has already eliminated several high-ranking members of the radical Islamist Hamas. As he has just announced, the head of the militant government is one of them. Rawhi Mushtaha is said to have had a direct influence on war operations and finances.
Israel’s military says three high-ranking members of the radical Islamist group Hamas were killed in an airstrike in the Gaza Strip three months ago. The Israeli military said Rouhi Mushtaha, then head of the government of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, was among those killed. The military explained that leading members of Hamas, Sameh al-Siraj and Sami Udeh, were also removed. Israel describes it as eliminating the killing of people.
Mushtaha was one of the Hamas officers and had “direct influence on decisions” about the deployment of Hamas fighters, the Israeli military said in a statement. He was also in charge of finance in the Hamas Politburo. According to Israeli sources, Al-Siraj is responsible for security issues in the Hamas Politburo. Ude headed the Hamas Internal Security Agency.
In mid-July, Hamas military chief Mohammed Taif, believed to be the mastermind of the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, was killed in an airstrike in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military confirmed his killing in early August. At the end of July, Ismail Haniyeh, head of the Hamas Politburo, was assassinated in the Iranian capital, Tehran. Iran blamed Israel for the attack.
On October 7, 2023, hundreds of terrorists from Hamas and its affiliated Islamist groups entered southern Israel from the Gaza Strip. According to Israeli figures, a total of 1,205 people, mostly civilians, were killed in several cities, at a music festival and as hostages in the Gaza Strip. Of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas, 97 are currently being held in the Gaza Strip, and 33 of them have been officially declared dead by Israel.
Israel is carrying out a massive military operation in the Gaza Strip after a major attack by Hamas. According to the Hamas Health Authority, which cannot be independently verified, more than 41,700 people have now been killed in the Palestinian territories.
