A postman who carried messages from Mohammed Shabaneh, the head of the Rafah Brigade from the Qassam Brigades, was the one who disclosed the location of the meeting between Hamas military leader Mohammed Deif, and Ra’fat Salama, the head of the Khan Yunis Brigade, during which Deif was assassinated, Al-Arabiya reported.
The informant comes from a prominent family in Rafah and provided the location of the meeting, which led to the immediate assassination.
The investigation revealed that the informant, who is under interrogation, previously provided information on the location of Shabaneh, who has survived three assassination attempts since the beginning of the war in Gaza.
The informant also provided the IDF with complete maps of Rafah, including the network of tunnels, weapons manufacturing facilities, explosives, missiles, and drones.
