IDF and Shin Bet eliminate Hamas Counterintelligence Commander in Gaza. Amjad Muhammad Hassan Shaer killed in northern Gaza Strip.
Jerusalem, 25 July, 2025 (TPS-IL) — The IDF (Israel Defense Forces) and Shin Bet (Israel’s anti-terror General Security Service) killed the terrorist Amjad Muhammad Hassan Shaer, head of the Counterintelligence Directorate in the general security apparatus of the Hamas terrorist organization. Shaer was killed in the northern Gaza Strip earlier this week, on Wednesday.
Hamas’ Counterintelligence Directorate is responsible for suppressing opponents of its Gaza regime and securing senior Hamas officials and their assets in the Gaza Strip and beyond. The IDF said the Directorate is a “vital part of the general security apparatus of the Hamas terrorist organization” (the General Intelligence Directorate), which is responsible, among other things, for building an intelligence picture that assists senior Hamas officials in making decisions and executing terror plans against Israel.
