Israel says Gaza drone strike targeted a Hamas commander
- The Israeli military conducted a drone strike in northern Gaza targeting a Hamas commander.
- This was the first targeted strike announced by Israel since August 3.
- The Israeli military did not confirm whether the targeted commander was killed.
- Four injured individuals were reported to have been brought to hospitals following the strike.
- The Health Ministry in Gaza reported a total of 45 people killed since August 1.
The Israeli military said it struck a Hamas commander Wednesday in northern Gaza using a targeted drone strike despite pressure to halt such attacks from officials overseeing peace efforts.
Israel claims the drone strike targeted a man in the city of Beit Lahiya, described by its military as a Hamas commander. However, it remains unclear whether he was killed in the attack.
The strike occurred amid scrutiny of targeted attacks following a peace plan announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, which included a call to halt such strikes. Despite Hamas's acceptance of the plan, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected it, insisting that Hamas must fully disarm first.
In the aftermath of the strike, four injured individuals were reported to have been treated at local hospitals, while the Health Ministry in Gaza has reported a total of 45 fatalities since August 1.
以色列称加沙无人机袭击瞄准哈马斯指挥官
以色列军方表示，周三在加沙北部进行了一次无人机袭击，目标是哈马斯的一名指挥官，尽管和平努力的官员施加了停止此类攻击的压力。
以色列声称此次无人机袭击瞄准了贝特拉希亚市的一名男子，该男子被以色列军方描述为哈马斯指挥官。然而，目前尚不清楚他是否在袭击中被杀。
此次袭击发生在对定点打击的审查之中，此前美国总统唐纳德·特朗普宣布了一项和平计划，呼吁停止此类袭击。尽管哈马斯接受了该计划，但以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡本周早些时候对此表示拒绝，强调哈马斯必须首先完全解除武装。
在袭击之后，有四名受伤者被报告在当地医院接受治疗，而加沙卫生部报告自8月1日以来已有45人遇难。
