On August 13, 2025, Israeli forces eliminated terrorist Mohammed Naif Abu Shamla, the commander of the Nukhba platoon in the Hamas terror organization, in southern Khan Younis.

During the war, he promoted numerous terror plans against IDF forces and the State of Israel as part of his role in the Hamas terror organization.
