Israel repeatedly kills Hamas members in the Gaza Strip. According to Israeli sources, a minister was also affected. He is said to have helped with the procurement of weapons, among other things.
The Israeli army says it deliberately killed the economics minister of the Islamist terrorist organization Hamas in the Gaza Strip. The military announced that the air force had eliminated Abed al-Sariei on Sunday “under the instructions of military intelligence.” According to Israel, Al-Sariei was also active in procuring weapons for Hamas. His department exchanged information with other terrorist organizations in the Middle East, among other things.
“Al-Sariei played a significant role in leading Hamas’ efforts to gain control over humanitarian aid supplies brought into the Gaza Strip,” it said. He also helped Hamas control markets in the coastal strip on the Mediterranean. “He was also responsible for the distribution of fuel, gas and funds for terrorist purposes.” This information from the army could not be independently verified.
In 2006, Hamas won the last Palestinian parliamentary election. The following year, it violently seized sole control of the Gaza Strip and expelled the more moderate Fatah of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas from the area. Since then, Fatah has ruled only the West Bank, and there have been de facto two governments.
