Israel claims senior Hamas commander Marwan Issa killed in Gaza strike

Hamas deputy military commander Marwan Issa was killed in an Israeli air strike this month, Israel’s military spokesperson says. “We have checked all the intelligence,” Rear-Admiral Daniel Hagari said in a televised statement. “Marwan Issa was eliminated in the strike we carried out around two weeks ago.” Issa was at the top of Israel’s most-wanted list together with Mohammed Deif, the head of Hamas’s military wing, the Izz el-Deen al-Qassam Brigades, and Hamas’ leader in Gaza Yahya Sinwar. There was no immediate comment from Hamas. The White House said on March 18 that Issa had been killed, but Israel had not confirmed his death until now.
