Shayetet 13 raid on Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital kills Hamas commander Faiq Mabhouh

IDF special forces led a raid on a Hamas base inside Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital, and claimed to have killed a senior Hamas member hiding there. Faiq Mabhouh, who was the head of Hamas’s Internal Security, was shot fighting with Shayetet 13 special forces during the raid, the IDF said. Bodycam footage taken by the commandos showed them carrying out the raid, and uncovering what they say were Hamas arms dumps and cash. Israel said the raid was carried out based on intelligence which showed Hamas fighters from across Gaza had fled to the hospital and set up a base there, which they were using to direct terrorist activity in the strip. The IDF said 20 terrorists were killed in the operation and 200 captured. The raid took place at dawn, with tanks surrounding the Hamas base and planes keeping watch overhead before troops moved inside. #hamas #israel #idf Daily Mail Homepage: Daily Mail Facebook: Daily Mail IG: Daily Mail Snap: Daily Mail Twitter: Daily Mail Pinterest: Shayetet 13 raid on Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital kills Hamas commander Faiq Mabhouh Get the free Daily Mail mobile app:
