The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Thursday have released new footage showing the airstrike that killed Hudhaifa Kahlout, known by his war name Abu Obayda, the spokesman of Hamas’s military wing and head of its propaganda apparatus.In a post on X, the army stated that Kahlout was eliminated last week in a joint IDF-Shin Bet operation. For years, he had served as the masked face of Hamas, directing the group’s propaganda and psychological operations. Kahlout was eliminated on 30 August in a joint IDF-Shin Bet operation, as reported by BBC. During the ongoing conflict, he reportedly oversaw the distribution of cameras used to document the October 7 massacre and released videos of Israeli hostages, news agency The Times of Israel reported.Israel’s defence minister Israel Katz congratulated the IDF and Shin Bet for the “flawless execution” in a post on X. Along with the footage, the IDF published a newly uncovered image showing Kahlout with Hamas’s former military chief Muhammad Deif, Khan Younis Brigade chief Rafa’a Salameh and intelligence chief Muhammad Odeh. These all were later killed in separate Israeli strikes.
