Official confirmation: Al-Qassam Brigades commander Izz ad-Din al-Haddad killed in Gaza
The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, officially announced the death of the battalion commander, Izz ad-Din al-Haddad (known as Abu Suhaib), in an Israeli strike in central Gaza City. According to the Hamas organization's Telegram channel announcement, al-Haddad's death occurred alongside his wife and their daughter, in what the organization termed a "cowardly assassination operation" and a "flagrant violation of the ceasefire agreement."
Conversely, a report by the Iranian news agency IRNA noted that Israel, specifically Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, took responsibility for the assassination. According to reports from the 'Akharin Khabar' news channel, the strike took place in a residential building in the Rimal neighborhood of Gaza.
On networks identified with the Axis of Resistance, such as the 'Akhbar-e Fouri' channel and Sabereen News, footage of al-Haddad's funeral ceremony was published. These reports emphasized that al-Haddad had previously lost his two sons, Suhaib and Mumin, in the war.
Resistance organizations emphasized that the killing of the senior commander would not lead to the end of the fighting, but would rather serve as "additional incentive to continue the path and the struggle." The 'Fars' agency, identified with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, provided extensive coverage of the events, emphasizing the narrative of "continued stubborn resistance."
