Israel’s military has said it targeted vehicles in the Aqabah area of the Jordan Valley in the occupied West Bank, claiming to have killed three Hamas members who it said were planning an imminent attack.

The Israeli military added that soldiers conducted a follow-up raid in the area, during which four weapons were seized.

Hamas’ armed al-Qassam Brigades confirmed the deaths of two of its members, stating they were killed during a mission near Aqabah in the northern West Bank, and vowed to continue resisting Israeli forces “until victory and liberation.”
