The IDF and Shin Bet attacked yesterday (Sunday) in the northern Gaza Strip and killed Zaher Barham Khalil Abu Salem, a terrorist from the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization, who raided the territory of the State of Israel during the October 7 massacre.

Abu Salem took part in kidnapping Israeli civilians from their homes and holding them captive.

In addition, throughout the war and recently, Abu Salem attempted to promote numerous terrorist plots against IDF forces and citizens of the State of Israel.

""Abu Salem posed a threat to our forces operating in the Gaza Strip and was eliminated in an air strike," the statement said.
