The U.S. ambassador to Israel stated that "despite no confirmation, there are indicators that Israel may have succeeded in killing the military wing leader of Hamas, Mohammed Deif." While Israel confirmed that its airstrikes targeting the Mawasi area in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, hit the military wing leader of Hamas, Mohammed Deif, the group asserted that he is well. However, these reports have not been verified, and the strikes on the Mawasi camp for displaced persons resulted in at least 90 deaths and 300 injuries, according to the health ministry in the region.
