The Israeli military said, “The IDF announces that on July 13, 2024, IDF fighter jets attacked the area of Khan Younis and after intelligence assessment it can be confirmed that Mohammed Dayef was killed in the attack.”
The Israeli Defense Force also posted a social media post related to this.

Israeli officials said they had indications their attack was successful, but they have not yet been able to confirm that he had been killed.
Hamas has not given any immediate response to this announcement made by Israel. This announcement has been made at a time when crowds were gathering in Tehran for the funeral of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.
Dayef is believed to have been one of the masterminds of the Hamas attack on southern Israel on October 7, which triggered the Gaza war, which has been going on for 300 days now.
Dayef was among the top leaders of Hamas
One of Hamas’s most influential leaders, Dayef rose through the group for more than 30 years, developing a network of tunnels and expertise in bomb-making.
Mohammed Dayef has been at the top of Israel’s most wanted list for decades. Israel holds him personally responsible for the deaths of dozens of Israelis in suicide bombings.
