Two Hamas officials, including Gaza police chief, reportedly killed in Israeli strike

Palestinian sources reported early Thursday that an Israeli strike in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, designated as a humanitarian zone, killed two individuals, including Mahmoud Salah, Hamas’ police commander in the Gaza Strip.

According to the reports, another high-ranking Hamas figure, Hussam Shahwan, whose rank is equivalent to brigadier general, was also killed in the attack.

In addition, Gaza health officials reported that 11 people were killed in a separate strike on what they described as a “displaced persons camp.”
