IDF Strikes Down Notorious Hamas Sniper Responsible for Dozens of Israeli Troop Deaths

Israeli Forces Strike Down Notorious Hamas Sniper Ahmad Hasan in Gaza City Operation Nightfall

Operation Nightfall brought swift and deadly justice to Gaza City yesterday, as Israeli forces struck down Ahmad Hasan, the notorious Hamas sniper blamed for the deaths of dozens of Israeli troops in a string of brazen attacks last year. Hasan was responsible for multiple deadly attacks on Israeli forces, including a particularly brazen assault in which he killed three soldiers and wounded several others.

Since 2007, when Hamas seized control of the coastal strip, the conflict has ebbed and flowed, with periods of relative calm punctuated by outbreaks of violence. The Gaza Strip has long been a hotbed of tensions between Israel and Hamas, with the militant group using its territory as a launchpad for devastating attacks on Israeli civilians and military personnel.

The IDF's operation to kill Hasan was code-named Operation Nightfall, which aimed to bring an end to his deadly sniper activities. According to reports from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Hasan was a prolific sniper who targeted Israeli troops with impunity. His actions sparked widespread outrage among Israelis, who demanded swift action against those responsible for the attacks.

Hasan's death marks a significant blow to Hamas and its ability to launch devastating attacks on Israeli civilians and military personnel. The operation is seen as a major victory for Israel, which has long struggled to counter the militant group's tactics in Gaza City.
