Israel Strikes The Largest Refugee Camp In Gaza: Claims Killing Of Top Hamas Commander
Jerusalem/Channels/Hyderabad, Nov 1 (Maxim News) The Israel military on Wednesday claimed responsibility for the airstrike on the Jambalaya refugee camp in Gaza, the largest in the besieged enclave, and said that one of the top Hamas leaders who was responsible for the October 7 assault was killed in the attack.
In a post on X, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said, “IDF fighter jets eliminated Ibrahim Biari, Commander of Hamas ‘ Central Jabaliya battalion. Biari was one of the leaders responsible for the murderous terror attack on October 7.
The strike damaged Hamas’ command and control in the area and eliminated a large number of terrorists who were with Biari. Additionally, underground terrorist infrastructure collapsed following the strike.
“The IDF reiterates its call to the residents of the area to move south for their safety.” Jabalya is the largest of the Gaza Strip’s eight refugee camps, according to the UN.
Defending Tuesday’s airstrike which killed a large number of people and caused catastrophic damages, IDF spokesperson Lt. Col. Jonathan Convicts said the refugee camps were targeted to kill Biari, who was “pivotal to the planning and the execution of the October 7 attack.”
“He was actively coordinating, orchestrating, and leading combat activities against the IDF as he was targeted,” media quoted Conricus as saying to reporters. (Maxim News)
