Among those killed were Rami Ibrahim Harab and Muaz Ziad Dra, members of Hamas’ Nukhba Force, who infiltrated Israel during the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel and were allegedly planning new attacks against IDF forces.

Also killed was Abd Muhammad Amzi, a militant from the Popular Resistance Committees operating under Hamas sponsorship.
