The IDF said it has carried out targeted killing of a senior Islamic Jihad official Saturday evening, who served as the terror group's southern command chief.
The operation to eliminate Khaled Mansour, along with his assistant Ahmed al-Madalal, was carried out in cooperation with the Shin Bet.
On Friday, the IDF assassinated Islamic Jihad's northern command chief, effectively kickstarting the latest military campaign in the Strip, dubbed Operation Breaking Dawn.
