The IDF announced on Saturday evening that a key Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) commander was eliminated in a targeted strike on Thursday.

In a coordinated operation between the IDF and the Shin Bet in central Gaza, an IAF aircraft struck and killed Muhammad Katrouy, the Commander of the PIJ's Central Camps Brigade.

Katrouy was responsible for orchestrating rocket attacks against Israel from the central Gaza Strip and played a significant role in the PIJ's terror activities targeting Israeli civilians and soldiers. Throughout his time with the organization, he held various roles, including Deputy Brigade Commander and Intelligence Officer.
