CAIRO: Mosques in northern Gaza on Saturday announced that Hamas’ military wing commander had died, a day after Israel’s military said that it had targeted the armed wing chief in airstrikes.
Witnesses said that mosques in Gaza City had announced Izz Al-Din al-Haddad’s “martyrdom.” There was no immediate comment from Hamas on the fate of the militant group’s military chief.
