Islamic Jihad leader vows to avenge death of commander killed in IDF strike

Leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Ziad Nahala said on Tuesday that his organization will avenge the death of the terror group's commander in the northern Gaza Strip Baha Abu al-Atta, who was killed alongside his wife in an IDF airstrike earlier Tuesday.

"We will fight the enemy and we must not forget our pain, for Palestine," said Nahala.

Following Abu al-Atta's targeted killing, Islamic Jihad terrorists fired dozens of rockets at Israel, a method Nahala said that the organization "understands the benefits of".
