This was stated by IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, RBC-Ukraine reports citing The Times of Israel.

According to him, in recent days, the military has carried out two major air strikes on the underground infrastructure of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Hagari added that one of them was hiding high-ranking Hamas commanders, including Ahmed Ghandour, commander of a Hamas brigade in northern Gaza, and Ayman Siam, head of a Hamas rocket launcher.

In another underground room, Hagari said, high-ranking members of the Hamas political bureau were hiding, including Rauhi Mushtaq, Essam al-Dalis, and Sameh al-Siraj.

"Hamas is trying to hide the results of the strike," he emphasized.

Hagari also said that he could not elaborate on the strike, but "it is safe to say that the dungeon where they were staying was very badly damaged."
