The military wing of Hamas, known as the Al Qassam Brigades, announced that it had carried out two shooting operations near the city of Hebron in the occupied West Bank. This action was in response to the killing of the group's political leader, Ismail Haniyeh.
The Al Qassam Brigades stated that these operations marked the beginning of a swift response to what they referred to as the cowardly assassination of their national leader, Ismail Haniyeh. They emphasized that Hebron would be at the forefront of carrying out further operations in the coming days.
