Saher Saqr, a terrorist responsible for kidnapping Israeli Noa Argamani during the October 7, 2023 massacre, was eliminated in recent weekend strikes in Nuseirat, central Gaza Strip, according to an IDF official. Saqr was seen transporting Argamani on the back of a motorcycle during the attack. Argamani was freed in June 2024, alongside Andrey Kozlov, Almog Meir Jan, and Shlomi Ziv, in Operation Arnon.
Israeli security forces also killed two other terrorists associated with the abduction and captivity of Israeli hostages during a separate air strike in July. Ahmed Hussein Mohammed Kafina, a commander in the Mujahideen Brigades, was among them. Kafina participated in the October 7 Massacre, leading a group of terrorists under his command.
He was responsible for the kidnapping of Avinatan Or and Noa Argamani, as well as directing others involved in the kidnapping of Sudthisak Rinthalak, as per the IDF. Reporters Shir Perets and Maya Zangar-Shamir have contributed to this story.
