Israel kills senior Hamas-led police official in Gaza, medics and police officials say
Israel has killed dozens of Hamas-led police officials in recent months, accusing them of posing threats inside Gaza, officials said.
- On Saturday, an Israeli airstrike in the Sheikh Radwan area north of Gaza City killed Brigadier-General Abdel-Nasser Al-Maqadma, the head of the Hamas-led police force in the northern Gaza Strip, medics said.
- Israel has killed dozens of members of the Hamas-led police force in the past months, accusing many of serving in the Hamas armed wing and posing imminent threats to Israeli forces inside Gaza.
- Separately, an Israeli strike killed a Palestinian medic in the Nuseirat refugee camp, while a police officer wounded last week died on Saturday; the toll now exceeds 1,180 Palestinians killed since the October ceasefire.
- Hamas claims the attacks are intended to 'sow chaos' and violate the United States-brokered October ceasefire, though the Israeli military did not immediately comment on the incidents.
- Mediators including Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, and the United States continue efforts to advance President Donald Trump's plan for ending the conflict, which calls for Hamas disarmament and Israeli withdrawals, despite little sign of progress.
