The IDF killed two terrorists during strikes on Gaza on Tuesday, one of whom abducted seven hostages on October 7th from Kibbutz Be'eri. 

The military announced on Thursday that it killed Muhammad Jamal Mahmoud Abu Al-Shaar in a strike on Gaza City, as well as Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist Musab Abd al-Jalil Saqib Balbisi in a strike on Jabalya.

Abu Al-Shaar was a cell commander in Hamas's military wing, the Izzadin al-Qassam Brigades. He infiltrated Kibbutz Be'eri on October 7 and kidnapped Sharon Hertzman-Avigdori, Noam Avigdori, Adi Shoham, Nave Shoham, Yahel Shoham, and Shoshan Haran to the Gaza Strip.

All of the aformentioned former hostages were released in November 2023.
