The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and Israeli intelligence agency Shin Bet announced the successful operation to eliminate Muhammad Atzar, the leader of Hamas's anti-tank missile unit in Gaza.
In a joint statement, the IDF reported that Muhammad Atzar was killed in an airstrike. Atzar held the responsibility for overseeing all anti-tank missile systems within different Hamas brigades in the Gaza Strip. He was actively managing the unit's operations on a regular basis and played a significant role in activating it during emergency situations.
It's worth noting that under Atzar's leadership of the anti-tank missile unit, several attacks were launched against both Israeli citizens and IDF forces. This operation marks a significant development in efforts to maintain security and stability in the region.
