IDF Spokesperson: The IDF has eliminated the Nukhba commander of the Islamic Jihad terror organization in Gaza City Brigade, who took part in the murderous October 7 assault on Kibbutz Nahal Oz.
Following Hamas’ violation of the ceasefire agreement—during which its terrorists opened fire on IDF forces on November 22, 2025—the IDF, led by Southern Command and with Air Force strikes guided by Military Intelligence and the Shin Bet, targeted terror sites, operatives, and commanders across the Gaza Strip.
After an intelligence review, the IDF confirms that one of the strikes eliminated terrorist Alaa al-Din Abd al-Nasser Hassan Khoudari, who served as the Nukhba commander of Islamic Jihad’s Gaza City Brigade.
This terrorist infiltrated Kibbutz Nahal Oz during the barbaric October 7 massacre and continued directing terror operations against IDF forces and Israeli civilians throughout the war.
