An Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip resulted in the deaths of three sons of Hamas' top political leader, Ismail Haniyeh. The incident occurred near the Shati refugee camp in Gaza City, where the three siblings were traveling with family members in a vehicle targeted by an Israeli drone. The strike also claimed the lives of other family members, including a daughter of one of the brothers.
Haniyeh, who confirmed the deaths in an interview with Al Jazeera, accused Israel of acting out of 'the spirit of revenge and murder.' He emphasized that Hamas would not yield to pressure and soften its positions in response to the killings.
