According to a report from The New York Post, a Hamas co-founder known as “Abu Osama” has been killed by Israeli Defense Forces airstrikes in the central Gaza Strip.
From The New York Post:
Abd al-Fattah Dukhan, a senior Hamas official known as “Abu Osama,” was killed in an attack by Israeli Defense Forces in the central Gaza Strip, Israel’s KAN public broadcaster reported, citing local Palestinian reports.
The prominent member was taken down in the Nuseirat neighborhood in the center of Gaza, according to the report.
Two other senior Hamas leaders, Zachariah Abu Ma’amar and Jawad Abu Shamala, were also killed in overnight airstrikes over Gaza on Tuesday, the IDF said, according to Israel National News.
Dukhan, a school principal at the al-Nusayrat refugee camp, was one of those at a 1987 offshoot meeting of the Muslim Brotherhood during which Hamas was founded by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, a Palestinian who lived in Gaza.
