Israeli Airstrike Kills Senior Hamas Commander Samir Abu Younis in Gaza
An Israeli airstrike on Sunday killed Samir Abu Younis, a senior Hamas commander leading the Rafah brigade in southern Gaza's Khan Younis area. The strike wounded several others and occurred despite an October 2025 ceasefire aimed at halting large-scale fighting between Israel and Hamas. While the ceasefire reduced major hostilities, it has not stopped ongoing attacks, with Gaza health authorities reporting over 1,600 Palestinian and five Israeli soldier deaths since its implementation.
