Jawad Abu Shmala, the finance minister for Hamas, and Zakaria Abu Maamar, a member of Hamas' political bureau, are the two prominent figures who lost their lives in the strikes.
A reported leak from Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said that thousands of “special interest aliens” have been apprehended by Border Patrol since 2021.
In a significant escalation, Israel has declared a "complete siege" on the Gaza Strip, following a series of deadly attacks by Hamas across the nation over the weekend.
In the midst of the escalating conflict now in its fourth day, the Israeli military has issued a stark warning, stating on Tuesday that their retaliatory airstrikes against Gaza will be “bigger than before and more severe.”
