Three sons of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the Hamas Political Bureau, along with his three grandchildren, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza City Wednesday, reported Xinhua..
Hamas' media office reported that the sons were killed by a strike on their car while they were driving in Al-Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City. Three of Haniyeh's grandchildren were also killed in the raid, Hamas said.
Later in the day, Israel officially confirmed the attack.
"An aircraft struck three Hamas military operatives that conducted terrorist activity in the central Gaza Strip," Israel's Shin Bet security service and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a joint statement.
According to the statement, the three sons who were killed are Amir Haniyeh, Mohammad Haniyeh, and Hazem Haniyeh.
The IDF added in the statement that it is "aware of claims that other relatives of Haniyeh were harmed, among them a minor. This information is not verified by the IDF."
Haniyeh said in an interview with Al Jazeera TV after the attack that the killing of his sons would not affect Hamas' demands in Gaza ceasefire negotiations.
Haniyeh, the 61-year-old Hamas leader, is based in Qatar.

I can’t imagine the pain Ismail Haniyeh must be going through losing his sons and grandchildren in such a tragic way. It’s heartbreaking to see the cycle of violence continuing in the region.
It’s heartbreaking news. My condolences to Ismail Haniyeh and his family. No parent should ever have to bury their children, regardless of the circumstances. Violence only begets more violence, and it’s a devastating cycle for all involved.
Were the identities of the victims confirmed by any independent sources other than the involved parties?
It is crucial that independent sources verify the identities of the victims to ensure transparency and authenticity in reporting such tragic events.
Were there any specific reasons given by Israel for targeting Ismail Haniyeh’s sons and grandchildren in the airstrike?
Yes, Israel officially confirmed that the strike targeted three Hamas military operatives conducting terrorist activity in the central Gaza Strip, including Amir Haniyeh, Mohammad Haniyeh, and Hazem Haniyeh, among others. The IDF stated it is not verified that other relatives were harmed.
How can such tragic events like this impact the ongoing ceasefire negotiations in Gaza? It’s heartbreaking to hear about the loss of multiple family members in this airstrike.
Tragic events like this often fuel both sides’ determination rather than soften their stance in negotiations. The loss of family members can deepen the resolve to push for their demands. It’s a challenging situation all around.
Do you think the Israeli airstrike was justified in targeting the sons of a Hamas leader? What impact will this have on the ongoing ceasefire negotiations in Gaza?
Yes, the Israeli airstrike targeting the sons of a Hamas leader was justified as they were known to be involved in terrorist activities. Such actions have repercussions in the ongoing ceasefire negotiations in Gaza, signaling Israel’s strong stance against Hamas.
It’s heartbreaking to hear about the loss of Ismail Haniyeh’s sons and grandchildren in the Israeli airstrike. My deepest condolences to their family. The cycle of violence in the region needs to end for the sake of innocent lives.
Did Ismail Haniyeh’s sons have any involvement in the conflicts or were they innocent victims? It’s heartbreaking to hear about children being caught in the violence.
It’s a tragic situation, MeganSmith. Unfortunately, in conflicts like these, innocent civilians often get caught in the crossfire. Regardless of their involvement, the loss of life is always a devastating outcome.
How can the Israeli airstrike justify killing innocent family members, including grandchildren? Does the end justify the means in this case?
Such a tragic loss for Ismail Haniyeh’s family. My heart goes out to them during this difficult time. Violence only begets more violence, and I hope that peace can prevail in the region soon.
