        "content": "<p>Israel has targeted the new head of Hamas\u2019s armed wing in a strike in\nGaza on Tuesday, carried out days after his predecessor was killed in a\nsimilar attack. \u201cA joint statement by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\nand Defence Minister Katz stated that the IDF recently conducted a\nstrike in Gaza targeting Mohammed Odeh \u2014 the new commander of Hamas\u2019s\nterrorist military wing and one of the architects of the October 7\nmassacre,\u201d reported by AFP on Wednesday, 27 May 2026. Odeh was appointed\nhead of the Ezzedine Al-Qassam Brigade following the death of his\npredecessor, Ezzedine Al-Haddad, in a Gaza strike in early May. Gaza\u2019s\ncivil defence agency, which operates as a rescue service under Hamas,\nreported that a woman was killed in an Israeli airstrike in the Rimal\nneighbourhood of western Gaza City. \u201cOdeh served as Hamas\u2019s intelligence\nchief during the October 7 massacre and was appointed approximately a\nweek ago to replace Ezzedine Al-Haddad,\u201d the Netanyahu and Katz\nstatement continued. \u201cOdeh is responsible for the killing, abduction,\nand injury of numerous Israeli civilians and IDF soldiers,\u201d it added.\nFollowing the October 7 attack, Netanyahu pledged to target and\neliminate those behind the assault, which, according to AFP\u2019s\ncalculations based on official Israeli figures, resulted in 1,221\ndeaths. Israel\u2019s retaliatory strikes in Gaza have killed at least 72,803\npeople, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. The United Nations\nconsiders these figures reliable. Since Hamas\u2019s cross-border attack,\nIsraeli military and intelligence agencies have launched a campaign\ntargeting senior Hamas political leaders and militant commanders in Gaza\nand across the region. During the war sparked by Hamas\u2019s attack, Israel\nhas claimed responsibility for killing several Hamas leaders, including\nthe group\u2019s former political chief, Ismail Haniyeh. Israeli forces also\nkilled Yahya Sinwar, widely regarded as the mastermind behind the\nOctober 7 attack. Mohammed Deif, the long-serving commander of Hamas\u2019s\narmed wing and considered the architect of the attack, was also killed\nduring the conflict. Israeli strikes have also targeted Hamas agents in\nLebanon, as well as senior commanders of Iran-backed Hezbollah, which\nallies with the group, including former Hezbollah chief Hassan\nNasrallah.<\/p>",
