Terrorist organizations raised the alert during the attack in the Gaza Strip this week, especially at the leadership level - for fear of further elimination, Palestinian sources in the Gaza Strip said on Friday.

Sources in the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip told the Lebanese newspaper "Al-Akhbar" close to Hizbullah that the Israeli response to the Ashkelon launch this week focused on naval sites belonging to Hamas naval force. In addition, a naval facility west of Khan Yunis and multi-story buildings belonging to the Hamas naval police were attacked. Recall that night, the IDF reported that aircraft had attacked Hamas terror targets, including military complexes.

According to the report, there was a concern about the elimination of the Northern Jihad Brigade commander Baha Abu Alta, while the activists of the organizations were completely evacuated from the sites the IDF might attack. This was especially so in light of Netanyahu's threat.

Remember, the prime minister and his wife were forced to evacuate in a protected area following an alarm during a conference in Ashkelon. Netanyahu then said that "he fired last time not with us, and whoever fired now, will pack the belongings."
