The IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) announced they killed two terrorists on Wednesday for alleged involvement in the smuggling of weapons and other military assets into Gaza, according to a joint statement.
Basel Nabil Abd Al-Rahman Kashta and Ahmad Raja Al-Shaer were killed in the strikes in Khan Yunis to eliminate "an immediate threat to Israeli civilians and IDF troops operating in the Yellow Line area," the joint statement said.
The IDF and Shin Bet added that precise munitions and aerial surveillance were used to mitigate unnecessary harm to civilians.
The statement said that the IDF would focus its efforts on limiting Hamas's military build-up and its financing capabilities to prevent the terrorist group from regaining its capacity to threaten IDF troops and Israeli civilians.
This is a developing story.
