Hamas Gaza leader Ali Al-Amoudi survives assassination attempt, consolidates control

Ali Al-Amoudi, de facto Hamas leader in Gaza and last prisoner from the Shalit deal, survived an assassination attempt and is now rebuilding Hamas's government and military wing. The report claims he hinted at the October 7 massacre two days prior, signaling continuity of hardline leadership. This suggests sustained Hamas operational capacity and potential for renewed escalation despite Israeli targeting.
