10 Hamas Terrorists Exiled to Gaza in 2011 Killed in Airstrike


(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - Ten Hamas terrorists who were exiled to Gaza in the 2011 Shalit deal, including some behind the killing of Israelis, were killed in an airstrike last week, the Israel Security Agency and IDF announced. Most of those killed were members of Hamas's West Bank headquarters, involved in recruiting terrorists and advancing attacks against Israel from or within the West Bank. Among those killed were Riyad Assila and Bassem Abu Sanina, who murdered Israeli civilian Haim Karman in 1998 in Jerusalem. Also killed was Mohammed Saria, who killed IDF soldier Staff Sgt. Ehud (Udi) Tal in the West Bank in 1996. Seven other Hamas members killed in the strike were all convicted during the Second Intifada of involvement in deadly terror attacks and were given life sentences.
