The IDF struck and eliminated the terrorist Yahya Abu-Labda, a commander in the supply department of the Hamas terror organization, yesterday.
In the framework of his role, Abu-Labda was responsible for the procurement and transportation of military equipment and combat means for the military wing of the Hamas terror organization. Abu-Labda led and advanced the transfer of dozens of tons of raw materials for rocket production and advanced electronic components to advance Hamas's production facility. Among other things, this equipment was used by the Hamas terror organization in the October 7 attack.
IDF forces under Southern Command will continue to operate to thwart the Hamas terror organization's attempts to build strength in the Gaza Strip and to remove any threat to the State of Israel and its citizens.
