Israel said it targeted Hamas leaders in a “precision strike.”This is read by an automated voice. (UGC via Associated Press)Aside from its expanding campaign in Gaza, the Israeli military also recently conducted operations in Lebanon, Syria and Yemen. Tuesday’s attack wasn’t the first time Israel has targeted Hamas leaders abroad. In 2010, operatives with the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad killed Mahmoud Mabhouh, chief of logistics and weapons procurement for Hamas’ military wing, the Izzidin al-Qassam Brigades. More than 64,000 Palestinians, most of them civilians, Gaza authorities say, have been killed in Israel’s subsequent campaign against the enclave.
