Top Hamas commander Mohammed Deif was the figure targeted in an Israeli strike on a displacement camp in southern Gaza which killed at least 90 Palestinians.
Israel has targeted Hamas’ military chief Mohammed Deif in a strike on a designated humanitarian zone in southern Gaza which killed at least 90 Palestinians. It is not clear yet if Deif was among the dead. But who is he? An elusive and powerful figure, Deif is understood to be one of the masterminds behind the October 7 attacks. He has led the Palestinian militant group’s armed wing for more than two decades.
From the beginning, Deif has been a key architect in Hamas’s strategy against Israel. He was behind a wave of suicide attacks in 1996 that killed 65 people in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, as well as other acts intended to derail the Israel-Palestine peace process. Deif rose through the ranks of the Qassam Brigades to be named its leader in 2002, after the previous commander was killed by Israel.
