'With every martyr, the flame of resistance burns brighter until the occupation is eliminated,' the statement declared. 🚨Footage : The devastation left behind after Israel targeted the tent of Hamas political bureau member Salah Al-Bardawil and his family overnight in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis southern Gaza. — Gaza Notifications (@gazanotice) March 23, 2025 A Distinguished Leader and Scholar Martyr Salah Al-Bardawil was born in 1959 in the Khan Younis refugee camp, with roots tracing back to the occupied village of Al-Joura, near Gaza. He was an accomplished academic, earning degrees in Arabic language and Palestinian literature from Cairo University and Sudan. His work as an educator and writer also contributed to his prominent role in establishing the Palestinian Writers Union and the National Gathering for Thought and Culture. Al-Bardawil's political involvement with Hamas began in the early 1990s. In 1996, he founded Al-Risalah, the first official media outlet of Hamas, and served as its editor-in-chief. Through his weekly satirical column, 'From the Streets of the Homeland,' he critiqued the Palestinian Authority, which led to multiple arrests by Israeli forces. He also led Hamas's media department and played a central role in the formation of the National Salvation Party in 1996. In 2006, al-Bardawil was elected to the Palestinian Legislative Council, representing Khan Younis. Over the years, he held various senior positions within Hamas, including overseeing the movement's internal and external planning while maintaining strong connections with fellow leaders. The ongoing attacks, including the death of Salah Al-Bardawil, highlight the continuing struggle for Palestinian sovereignty and resistance against occupation.

Hamas confirm death of senior leader in Israeli attack on Gaza
A senior Hamas official has been killed in an Israeli airstrike in the southern Gaza Strip, the Palestinian militant group reported on Sunday. The Islamist organization confirmed the death of Salah al-Bardawil, a member of its politburo, in a post on its Telegram channel. Hamas said al-Bardawil and his wife were killed "in a treacherous Zionist assassination" in his tent in al-Mawasi, an area in the Gaza Strip designated as a humanitarian zone. The war-torn Gaza Strip has seen a fragile ceasefire shattered in recent days after Israel resumed its bombing campaign early on Tuesday before launching another ground offensive. Hundreds of Palestinians have since been killed, including women and children. Mediators had previously failed to agree on an extension of the ceasefire that took effect in mid-January, after more than 15 months of fighting following the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel.
