Israel has announced the targeted killing of Mohammed Odeh, the recently appointed head of Hamas' military wing, during a series of airstrikes on Gaza City.

The operation, confirmed by Israel Katz, resulted in Odeh and four others, including members of his family, being killed just before the Eid al-Adha holiday.

The attack highlights ongoing tensions in Gaza, where a fragile ceasefire remains in place but violence persists, affecting the lives of millions of displaced Palestinians.

Many in Gaza, where humanitarian conditions are dire, are lamenting the subdued Eid celebrations due to continuous conflict and loss.
