The IDF and Shin Bet attacked last week (Tuesday) and killed the terrorist Ismail Masri, head of military security in the Rafah Brigade of the Hamas terrorist organization.

Masri was a senior figure in Hamas's mechanisms in the Rafah Brigade, and was responsible for promoting activities intended to harm the IDF's freedom of action in the Gaza Strip.

During the war, Masri included the areas of security and counterintelligence in the Rafah Brigade and engaged in an attempt to restore and strengthen military security, with the aim of harming our forces.
