In a precise IDF operation, Ibrahim Abu Thaqar, a terrorist from the Hamas terrorist organization, was eliminated yesterday (Wednesday), who, according to intelligence information, was planning to carry out a terrorist attack plan against IDF forces in the immediate future.
Throughout the war, Abu Thaqar led numerous terrorist attacks against IDF forces and the State of Israel, while simultaneously serving as a paramedic in Hamas' military medical services.
The IDF emphasizes that this duplication of roles has made him a risk not only for our soldiers, but also for the medical system and the civilian population in Gaza, who serve as a human shield for terrorist activity.
The army notes that prior to the attack, strict measures were taken to minimize harm to uninvolved civilians, using precision weaponry and continuous aerial surveillance until the moment of the assassination.
