Over the past two weeks, Israel’s military has killed both the leader of Hamas’ military wing and his replacement — the latest in a long string of targeted killings aimed at senior militants.
They were identified as Mohammed Odeh and Izz al-Din al-Haddad, architects of the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel. Officials say their killings were part of broader efforts to pursue those behind the attacks that triggered the war in Gaza.
