Netanyahu Says Israel Seized Hamas Internal Security Chief in Gaza

Israeli forces said the raid killed at least four people and sent Muein al-Arabid to Israel for questioning.

  • On Tuesday, Israeli forces captured senior Hamas figure Muein Mohammed Al-Arabid during a ground operation in Gaza, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stating the target was involved with Israeli hostages previously held there.
  • The Israeli army and Shin Bet domestic security service said Arabid 'recently worked to consolidate the Hamas terrorist organization's control over the northern Gaza Strip and to advance terrorist attacks against IDF troops.'
  • Hamas's Interior Ministry denied these allegations, stating Arabid was 'overseeing efforts to combat collaborators' with Israel, while claiming the officer was 'abducted' during the engagement.
  • Palestinian health officials reported four deaths during the operation, while separate strikes in Gaza City killed three children and a woman; the Israeli air force 'struck several targets in the area in order to remove threats.'
  • Hamas condemned the 'criminal operation' while citing communication with mediators regarding the October ceasefire plan, as health officials report at least 1,326 deaths in Gaza since the ceasefire took effect.
