As talks between Israel and Hamas continue in Qatar, Israel continues to hit hard at the terrorist leadership in Gaza that has been working to rebuild Hamas’ military strength:

A series of Israeli strikes in Gaza over the past two weeks killed several senior Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad commanders, the Israel Defense Forces and Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) said in a joint statement released on Sunday.

The IDF and Shin Bet focused their efforts on units actively working to rebuild the military capabilities of the two terrorist organizations. These units included Hamas’s Weapons Production Headquarters and Military Intelligence Unit, both considered crucial to the organizations’ operational strength.

According to the statement, Hamas’s Weapons Production Headquarters is responsible for restoring and expanding the group’s arsenal, including the development of precision missiles. The Military Intelligence Unit gathers and analyzes intelligence to maintain operational control in Gaza and facilitate attacks against Israel.
