Israel's military said on Friday it had killed five Hamas militants, including commanders, in an overnight raid in northern Gaza's Beit Lahia, where Palestinian medics reported dozens killed or missing.
In a statement, the military and the Shin Bet security agency said they had "eliminated five Hamas terrorists, including a Nukhba (commando) company commander and an additional company commander who participated in the October 7 massacre" that sparked the Gaza war last year.
