Israel kills top Hamas weapons developer, IDF says

The Israel Defense Forces said Wednesday that Hamas' head of weapons and industries, Moshen Abu Zina, was killed in an airstrike along with dozens of terrorists.

Israeli forces have surrounded Gaza City, where Hamas has built a vast network of underground tunnels to move fighters and supplies as it carries out attacks on Israel. The military said troops are now in "the heart of Gaza City" and Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Tuesday that his soldiers were "tightening the noose" on the terrorist group.

"[Troops] have one target - Hamas terrorists in Gaza, their infrastructure, their commanders, bunkers, communications rooms," said Gallant.
