Israeli forces killed a Palestinian Islamic Jihad commander in a targeted strike in southern Gaza earlier this week, the Israel Defense Forces said on Thursday.

The military identified the terrorist as Adam Muhammad Ibrahim Abu Hadid, who oversaw infrastructure used to manufacture weapons for attacks on Israeli troops and civilians.

The strike took place on Tuesday in the Khan Younis area.

Abu Hadid posed an immediate threat to troops, according to the IDF.

Israeli forces remain deployed in the area in line with the ceasefire agreement, the military added.

The shooting guard, 22, is the son of legendary Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball star Derrick Sharp.
The demonstration caused heavy traffic, including a chain accident on Highway 1 in which a pregnant woman was moderately injured.

Basil Sweid, 32, a driver in the military’s 75th Battalion, was “a brave reservist fighter, filled with a sense of mission, who symbolized the unbreakable bond between the Druze community and the State of Israel,” said Israel’s prime minister.
