Israeli forces have killed half of Hamas’s military leadership in Gaza and killed or arrested around 14,000 of its fighters since the start of the war over nine months ago, the Israel Defence Forces said on Tuesday.

Among Hamas’s losses are six brigade commanders, over 20 battalion commanders and roughly 150 company commanders, according to the IDF.

“The IDF continues the important task of pursuing the top leaders of the Hamas terrorist organisation as part of the goal of dismantling the organization’s capabilities,” the military said.
