Israeli Airstrike Kills Senior Hamas Commander in Northern Gaza
An Israeli airstrike killed Izz al-Din Al-Beik, a senior Hamas commander in northern Gaza, on Tuesday, confirmed by Israeli and Palestinian sources. Israeli officials said Beik was involved in planning attacks and recruiting militants, while Hamas acknowledged his death.
