TL;DR Summary

Israel has killed a senior member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) group, Iyad al-Hassani, in an airstrike in Gaza City, along with his assistant. The strike is the sixth since the latest round of hostilities began earlier this week. Al-Hassani was a top official in the group’s military council, in charge of its operations department.
