The Israeli army spokeswoman, Ella Wawiya, announced on Saturday evening that the Southern Command forces carried out a night attack in the southern Gaza Strip, resulting in the killing of Muhannad Othman Yassin Farwaneh, who she said was the leader of a cell in the military wing of the Hamas movement.

She explained that Farwaneh worked throughout the war, especially in the final stage, to push a number of plans against the Israeli forces and against Israel, and was considered an immediate threat to the forces operating in the region.

She added that he was targeted through a precise air strike with the aim of removing the threat, stressing that the Southern Command forces are deployed in the field in accordance with the agreement, and will continue to work to remove any threat that it considers immediate.
