Israeli forces carried out a targeted strike on a motorcycle in the Al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, southern Gaza, killing at least one operative and wounding several others, according to Gazan reports. The identities and exact affiliation of those hit have not yet been disclosed.
A targeted strike on a motorcycle in the Al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, southern Gaza, killed at least one operative and wounded several others Tuesday afternoon, Gazan sources report. The strike, which took place in what the sources describe as the 'occupied Palestinian settlement of Al-Mawasi' in the 'occupied Gush Katif,' comes amid ongoing Israeli operations in the area.
As The Zioneer reported earlier Tuesday (17:08), a separate targeted strike on a motorcycle in the Gaza Strip had already killed one operative. The current incident appears to be another distinct operation in the same vicinity, though confirmation from Israeli military sources has not yet been published.
Earlier Tuesday (15:49), Al Jazeera reported one killed and several wounded in an IDF airstrike on a tent in Mawasi, west of Khan Younis. The thread of operations in Khan Younis and its environs has been active in recent days and weeks, with previous The Zioneer reports (June 8, June 7) noting multiple strikes against operatives in the area.
The affiliation of the operative killed in the current strike and the number of wounded remain unverified by independent sources.
