ISRAEL/Gaza, November 29, 2023 (Bee News Daily)— The IDF, Shin Bet, and Border Police eliminated Muhammad Zubeidi, the commander of the Jenin branch of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist group, amid armed clashes in Jenin on Wednesday, according to a joint statement by the IDF, Shin Bet, and police.
Zubeidi was carried out several shooting attacks and was involved in extensive terrorist activity, including the attack in which Meir Tamari was murdered near Hermesh in May.
Zubeidi is related to Zakaria Zubeidi, one of the six Palestinian inmates who escaped from Gilboa Prison in 2021.
“The IDF will rescue our hostages, dismantle Hamas, and do it while minimizing the harm to civilians,” said Lt. Col. Richard Hecht, IDF International Spokesperson
