Israel Threatens to Assassinate Hamas Leader Khalil Al-Hayya in Qatar - Jordan News
Israeli Defense Minister issued a new threat on Saturday, warning of further assassinations targeting senior figures in both the political and military wings of Hamas — including Khalil al-Hayya, a senior Hamas official residing in Qatar. The statement comes after the Israeli military confirmed the assassination of Mohammed al-Sinwar, a top Hamas military commander. اضافة اعلان In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Defense Minister Israel Katz declared: 'It's official: Mohammed al-Sinwar and Rafah Brigade Commander Mohammed Shabana have been eliminated. Israel's long arm will reach every individual responsible for the October 7th massacre, near or far — until all are eliminated.' According to the Israeli military, Mohammed al-Sinwar, brother of Hamas leader Yahya al-Sinwar, was killed in an airstrike roughly three weeks ago near the European Gaza Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Katz also issued threats against other key Hamas figures, including Izz al-Din al-Haddad, commander of Gaza City Brigade, and Khalil al-Hayya, a prominent member of Hamas's political bureau. Since the start of the war on Gaza, Israel has carried out assassinations of numerous Hamas leaders both inside and outside the Gaza Strip. Among the most high-profile targets reportedly killed: Ismail Haniyeh, Head of Hamas's Political Bureau, allegedly assassinated in Tehran. Saleh al-Arouri, Deputy Political Chief, killed in a drone strike in Beirut.

Israeli jets pound Gaza's European Hospital, killing six
For the second time in a one day, the Israeli army has struck a hospital in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. According to medics, at least six people were killed in Tuesday's strike on the European Hospital. The Israeli military said it had carried out 'a precise strike on Hamas terrorists in a command and control center,' located in an underground structure beneath the facility. The claim could not be independently verified. Unconfirmed Israeli media reports suggested the target may have been Mohammed al-Sinwar, the younger brother of Hamas leader Yahya al-Sinwar, who was killed last year. Witnesses described a highly tense atmosphere on the ground after what they said were particularly powerful Israeli strikes. The Hamas-run health authority in Gaza reported that more than 40 people were injured in the European Hospital strike. (DPA)

Israeli jets pound Gaza's European Hospital, killing six
For the second time in a one day, the Israeli army has struck a hospital in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. According to medics, at least six people were killed in Tuesday's strike on the European Hospital. The Israeli military said it had carried out a "a precise strike on Hamas terrorists in a command and control center," located in an underground structure beneath the facility. The claim could not be independently verified. Unconfirmed Israeli media reports suggested the target may have been Mohammed al-Sinwar, the younger brother of Hamas leader Yahya al-Sinwar, who was killed last year. Mohammed al-Sinwar is considered a rising figure in the Islamist group and is believed to have taken over as head of Hamas' armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, following the death of military chief Mohammed Deif. There was no immediate confirmation from Palestinians on the identities of those killed, or whether al-Sinwar was among them. Witnesses described a highly tense atmosphere on the ground after what they said were particularly powerful Israeli strikes. The Hamas-run health authority in Gaza reported that more than 40 people were injured in the European Hospital strike. Earlier, the Israeli military also targeted Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, similarly claiming it was being used by Hamas militants. Palestinian authorities said three people were killed in that attack. The Israeli army has long accused Hamas of using hospitals and other civilian infrastructure in Gaza for military purposes. The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), however, condemned the strike on Nasser Hospital as "unacceptable."
