The Israeli army says that its forces killed a Hamas commander allegedly among those who participated in the attack on southern Israel on 7 October.
In a post on X, the military said it struck and killed Sakr Abu Karim in southern Gaza, a commander in Hamas's Nukhba Force who they say helmed the raid in the Kissufim area on October 7, 2023.
It added that another Hamas member who served as a “communications operative” was also killed in the attack.
The IDF confirmed it is working alongside medical professionals to track down the escaped terrorist while locating and providing medical care to those wounded.
According to Ynet, Ben-Gvir claimed that the relaxation of gun controls since October 7 had not caused this increase, adding that "a weapon in the right hands saves lives. Period."
The burden of war falls on young reservists, while Israel's budget rewards those who do not share the sacrifice.
Several teams, including Ivory Coast and Tunisia, require multi-entry visas because they have games scheduled in the United States as well as in Canada or Mexico.
