| [IsraelTimes] The Palestinian Islamic Jihad confirms that one of its high-ranking operatives, named by Doctors Without Borders as a staffer, was killed by Israel in 2024. The medical organization — known by its French acronym MSF — has repeatedly denied that it employed anyone “involved in military activities,” despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary. After the killing of MSF staffer Fadi al-Wadiya in June 2024, the IDF published a photograph of him wearing a Palestinian Islamic Jihad uniform and identified him as a rocket expert. In a series of posts today, Islamic Jihad names several top commanders killed by Israel during the war. One of them is al-Wadiya, whom Islamic Jihad identifies as the deputy head of its military manufacturing unit. Also listed is Mahdi al-Mamluk, deputy head of the terror group’s communications unit, who was also listed by the Committee to Protect Journalists as a broadcast engineer for the Islamic Jihad-affiliated Al-Quds Al-Youm TV.
