Israel’s defense minister says Israeli forces capture a senior Hamas figure during an operation in Gaza. Defense Minister Israel Katz says the IDF captures Mu’in al-Arabid, described as a Hamas security chief, during a deep raid.
According to Katz, the operation includes air support covering the withdrawal as forces move out of the area. The reporting frames the capture as part of Israel’s ongoing campaign against Hamas in Gaza, though details on timing, exact location, and the broader operational objectives are limited in the available accounts. Fox News and Yahoo News both report the claim from Katz and describe the event in similar terms, with no additional, clearly independent corroborating information included in the provided excerpts.
