Hamas official Basim Naim has confirmed the killing of Azzam al-Hayya, son of Khalil al-Hayya, in an Israeli air strike on Gaza City. The victim is the fourth son of Hamas’s exiled Gaza chief ⁠to have been killed in Israeli attacks. Al-Hayya, who has seven children, has survived multiple Israeli attempts to assassinate him. An Israeli attack in Qatar’s capital Doha last year, targeting the Hamas leadership, killed one of his sons, ‌though al-Hayya survived. Two other sons were killed in past Israeli attempts on his life in Gaza strikes in 2008 and 2014.
