The IDF killed Hamas Nukhba cell commander Maher Walid Omar Al-Husseini in the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday, the military announced on Friday.

According to the IDF, Al-Husseini infiltrated the Kibbutz Re'im military base as part of Hamas's October 7 massacre.

Since the 2023 attacks, the terrorist has continued his involvement in planning terror attacks against Israeli soldiers and civilians, the military noted.

This is a developing story.
