WhatsappA Hamas Nukhba force company commander, who led the invasion of Netiv Haasara on October 7, was killed in a recent airstrike in the Gaza Strip, the military and Shin Bet confirm.
The IDF reported that Ahmed Fawzi Nasser Muhammad Wadiyya was among eight Hamas terrorists killed in an airstrike on a compound used by the terror group near Gaza City’s al-Ahli hospital.
Wadiyya was the commander of a Nukhba force company in the terror group’s Daraj-Tuffah Battalion. On October 7, he raided Netiv Haasara using a paraglider, and oversaw the massacre there. Wadiyya was the terrorist who drank cola in the Taasa family home, in front of the children of Gil Taasa who was murdered in the onslaught.
The other seven terrorists killed in the Gaza City strike were also members of the Daraj-Tuffah Battalion, according to the IDF. The IDF says that one was involved in supplying the bombs used by the terror group to breach the Gaza security barrier on October 7. The strike took place outside the hospital. The IDF took various steps to mitigate harm to civilians.
