The Israeli military stated that the strikes killed Samer Ismail Khadr Abu Daqqa, Osama Tabesh, and Ayman Mabhouh—three senior Hamas militants. They were involved in the October 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel and had recently been planning terror activities against the Israel Defense Forces and the State of Israel.
The Israeli army later targeted the Al-Farouq Mosque in the Bureij refugee camp, aiming to destroy a Hamas command and control center inside. The Palestinian news agency Quds News reported casualties and injuries, but the exact number is unclear.
