Israeli army kills senior Hamas leader in S. Gaza raid

Gaza, Mar 23 (UNI) Salah al-Bardawil, a senior Hamas leader and member of its political bureau, was killed on Sunday along with his wife in an Israeli airstrike that targeted his tent inside a camp for displaced persons west of Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip.
Hamas sources said the bombing targeted a gathering of displaced people, resulting in a number of casualties. The sources considered the targeting of al-Bardawil a new escalation in Israeli attacks on the movement's leaders as well as civilians in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas mourned al-Bardawil, saying that he was a prominent political figure who had served as a member of the Palestinian Legislative Council for the Change and Reform Bloc and as one of the movement's official spokespersons.
The Israeli army has not commented on this incident yet.
The killing comes amid growing international calls to de-escalate the situation and protect civilians from the repercussions of the conflict.
