CNN —Israel has targeted Hamas’ military chief Mohammed Deif in a strike on a designated humanitarian zone in southern Gaza which killed at least 90 Palestinians.
He has led the Palestinian militant group’s armed wing for more than two decades.
This image taken from video and released by Hamas on August 26, 2005, shows a man identified as Mohammed Deif.
He became a founding member of Hamas’ armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, in the early 1990s.
Deif, a man who lives his life in the shadows, has managed to survive for decades while running Hamas’s armed wing.
