Israel says it killed new Hamas military leader in Gaza
Israel said the strike killed Mohammed Odeh, who it called a Hamas architect of the Oct. 7 attacks and the successor to a slain commander.
- On Tuesday, Israel said it targeted Mohammed Odeh, Hamas's newly appointed armed wing chief, in a Gaza strike just days after his predecessor Ezzedine Al-Haddad was killed on May 15.
- Since Hamas's October 7, 2023 cross-border assault killing 1,221 people, Israel has systematically targeted the group's senior leadership, with Netanyahu pledging to 'eliminate the masterminds' behind the attacks.
- Netanyahu and Defence Minister Israel Katz stated Odeh 'served as head of Hamas intelligence during the Oct 7 massacre' and was 'responsible for the murder, abduction, and injury of numerous Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers,' with the strike killing three people and wounding more than 20 in Gaza City's Rimal neighbourhood.
- Hours before the strike, Israel announced expanded ground operations in Lebanon as it intensifies military activities on multiple fronts, with approximately 900 Palestinians killed since the October ceasefire and four Israeli soldiers reported casualties.
- Israel and Hamas remain deadlocked over implementing the ceasefire's second phase, which would include Hamas disarmament and Israeli withdrawals, as Israel's retaliatory response has killed at least 72,803 people according to Gaza health authorities validated by the United Nations.
