Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz:
“The IDF has just struck the commander of the Rafah Brigade in the Hamas terrorist organization, following the elimination earlier this week of the commander of the Khan Yunis Brigade and other senior figures in the organization.
Our message is clear: No terrorist is immune, and Hamas will not be in Gaza.
We stand by the IDF and the ISA, which are operating with determination to remove threats and protect the citizens of Israel.”
