Overview

• Abu Anas al-Ghandour, a top Hamas commander who led fighters in northern Gaza, has been confirmed dead by the group.
• Al-Ghandour was targeted by the Israeli military earlier this month, before the current four-day truce.
• Three other Hamas commanders were also reported killed.
• This comes amid a four-day truce between Israel and Hamas, set to end on Tuesday, to facilitate the release of hostages.
• Al-Ghandour is the most senior Hamas commander to be killed since Ayman Nofal, who was in charge of the Central Brigade in the Qassam Brigades and was killed last month.
