Israel braces for Hamas rocket onslaught in response to killing of terror chiefs

IDF says it killed top Hamas commanders in joint operation with the Shin Bet, including close operatives to Mohammed Deif.

Israel was bracing for additional long-range rocket attacks after Hamas warned on Wednesday that it would avenge the deaths of its top commanders with special rocket barrages throughout the evening.

The commanders were killed in a joint IDF- Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) operation earlier Wednesday when the IDF said it carried out a series of targeted killings in Gaza City and Khan Younis, eliminating senior members of Hamas’ General Staff who were considered close to the head of the group’s military wing, Mohammed Deif.
