Israel says killed new chief of Hamas armed wing in Gaza strike

Israel said on Wednesday it had killed the new head of Hamas's armed wing in Gaza, Mohammed Odeh, in a strike the day before, days after killing his predecessor in a similar attack.

In a post on X, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said the "commander of the armed wing of the Hamas terrorist organisation in Gaza was eliminated yesterday and sent to meet his associates in the depths of hell". Hamas has not yet commented.
