IDF Spokesman Brigadier-General Yoav Mordechai confirms that Yechi Biya, the Hamas commander of the rocket firings brigades, was eliminated in a targeted strike earlier in the afternoon.
Mordechai explained that the surgical strike was carried out following a direct order from IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz to step up attacks against Hamas in Gaza.
Byya was directly responsible for the majority of rockets that have been fired on Israel.
