Over the weekend, the military launched a helicopter strike on terrorist command centers in Jenin, killing Islam Khamayseh which the military said was responsible for a series of terror attacks in the area, including the shooting attack near the settlement of Hermesh in May 2023, when Meir Tamari was murdered. "Khamayseh was also responsible for the terror attack at the Efes junction, during which several Israeli civilians were injured," the IDF said.
