Reports from Gaza say at least six people were killed Tuesday, including Muhammad Fawaz al-Wahidi, the public relations manager of the Egyptian committee. The additional victims have not been identified. The report comes from a single source and has not been confirmed by the IDF.
The identity of one of the fatalities from Tuesday evening's strike in Gaza City's al-Sabra neighborhood has been reported as Muhammad Fawaz al-Wahidi, the public relations manager of the Egyptian committee. The strike, which hit a jeep, killed three people, according to Palestinian reports. The total number of fatalities in the Strip from Israeli military strikes since Tuesday morning reached six, the same sources said.
Initial reports at 18:49 Jerusalem said two people were killed in the jeep strike, bringing the day's total to six. Within minutes, one of the victims was identified as al-Wahidi. Subsequent reports described him as a senior figure in the Fatah movement and the manager of the Egyptian committee in Gaza, and named a third victim, Abu Ali. The IDF has not commented on the strike or the identities.
The strike comes amid ongoing Israeli military operations in Gaza, which The Zioneer has reported on, including the elimination of multiple operatives. The context includes a Southern Command officer stating that 245 Hamas operatives have been killed since Operation Roaring Lion began.
The IDF has not confirmed the strike or the identities. The circumstances — whether an airstrike, drone, or other means — have not been officially specified. The reports rely on a single channel of Palestinian sources and have not been independently corroborated.
