Israel's security system is increasingly assessing that Hamas spokesman Abu Obeida has been eliminated, with an official message expected soon. The assessment was conveyed to senior officials, who were informed that Obeida was a significant decision-making partner within Hamas, not merely a spokesperson. This marks the third attempt by Israel to eliminate him during the current conflict. Senior officials described Obeida's importance to Hamas as twofold: his senior position within the organization and the psychological impact of his elimination on Hamas. Palestinian sources have also reported Obeida's killing. Separately, ministers received a message in the last few minutes regarding a government meeting to be held in a secure location, according to Amichai Stein of the political channel.
