On Monday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) carried out a strike in central Gaza that resulted in the death of the mayor of the Al-Maghazi refugee camp. Both the IDF and Hamas confirmed the incident.
Hamas condemned the strike as a 'cowardly assassination' of Mr. Hatem Saleh Al-Ghamri, the mayor of Al-Maghazi. The militant group accused Israeli warplanes of bombing the building of the Joint Services Council of the central governorate's municipalities without warning. Hamas labeled the attack as a 'war crime' that violated international laws protecting civilian figures.
