A day after UNRWA said that its staffers were killed in a strike on the Al Jaouni School in the area of Nuseirat in central Gaza, the IDF revealed on Thursday that nine terrorists had been eliminated in the strike.
After UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the deaths of six UNRWA workers on Wednesday, the IDF said that it requested the details of the staff so that it could investigate – a request the military claimed remains unfulfilled.
Muhammad Adnan Abu Zayd, a UNRWA employee and one of the nine terrorists listed, launched mortars at Israel as part of his role in Hamas’s Military Wing, the military said.
Yasser Ibrahim Abu Sharar, another of the eliminated terrorists and an employee of UNRWA, reportedly acted as both a member of Hamas’s military wing, the Izzadin al-Qassam Brigades, and as an operative in Hamas’s emergency bureau in Nuseirat.
The military also said that Ayad Matar was both a UNRWA employee and a terrorist in Hamas’s military wing.
