A high-ranking Hamas official was killed in an Israeli strike in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza Strip. Salah al-Bardawil and his wife were killed in an airstrike on the city of Khan Yunis. This was reported by Radio Télévision Belge and Times of Іsrael, citing the page of the Palestinian Islamist movement in the social network, reports UNN.
The Islamist militant group Hamas has confirmed that one of its political leaders was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza overnight.
"Salah al-Bardawil was killed as a result of a treacherous attack by Zionists"
He and his wife were killed in an airstrike. The attack took place at night in the southern Gaza Strip, in Khan Yunis.
The Israeli side did not make any statement on Sunday morning.
Bardawil was a well-known member of the terrorist group's political wing and had been interviewed by the media for years.
He is the latest in a series of Hamas political leaders to be killed in renewed airstrikes, after the group's de facto government leader Essam Addalis and internal security chief Mahmoud Abu Watfa were killed along with several other officials on Tuesday.
The Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health says at least 19 people, including Bardawil, were killed in the overnight strikes.
