Israeli Precision Strike in Gaza City Kills Five, Hits Hamas Weapons Supply Chief Amid Ceasefire Tensions

Israeli officials report that an airstrike targeted a vehicle in Gaza City’s Rimal neighborhood, eliminating Alaa Hadidi, identified as the head of supply for Hamas’s weapons manufacturing operations.

The operation also reportedly killed four others in the car, with the Israeli Air Force claiming success in neutralizing a key figure in Hamas’s armament logistics.

Israeli authorities state the strike responded to an earlier incident where a lone gunman allegedly fired on troops in southern Gaza, prompting the action despite the fragile truce.

The incident has reportedly heightened concerns over ceasefire compliance, with Hamas accusing Israel of systematic violations that endanger civilians and undermine peace efforts.

Hamas has confirmed Hadidi’s death, calling it a breach of the agreement brokered months ago, while Israeli sources maintain such targeted operations continue against threats to security.
