Quds Brigades Spokesperson Abu Hamza martyred in Israeli airstrike
Naji Abu Saif, the military spokesperson for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s (PIJ) armed wing, the Al-Quds Brigades, was martyred on Tuesday following an Israeli airstrike targeting the central Gaza Strip, according to media reports.
Nicknamed Abu Hamza, Saif was reportedly killed along with his wife and children when Israeli warplanes bombed their home in what appears to be a direct assassination operation. The attack comes amid the ongoing Israeli aggression against Gaza, which has resulted in thousands of civilian casualties and widespread destruction.
As of now, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad has not issued an official statement regarding Saif’s martyrdom. However, the assassination of a high-profile military spokesperson is expected to escalate tensions further, with PIJ likely to respond forcefully.
This latest attack underscores the systematic targeting of Palestinian resistance leaders by the Israeli occupation, which has intensified its military campaign against Gaza despite international calls for a ceasefire.
More details are expected as the situation unfolds. (ILKHA)
