Israeli warplanes launched a fierce airstrike on the Gaza Strip early Saturday morning, resulting in the deaths of more than 110 people, including Sheikh Mahmoud Abu Sa'dah, the head of Hamas' Awqaf in Gaza, according to preliminary reports. The strike targeted the "Al-Tabe'in" school, which Israel claimed was aimed at Hamas leaders, a claim Hamas denied.
Who is Mahmoud Abu Sa'dah?
Abu Sa'dah served as the director of the Awqaf in Gaza, and his full name is Muhammad Hassan Abu Sa'dah, known as "Abu Anas." He held a master's degree in engineering and another in Islamic origins. He had a significant influence on educating members of the movement in Islamic foundations and encouraging them to participate in fighting against Israel.
