Story summary

Israeli forces announced on September 27 that they had killed Saher Nidal Latfi Sakr, a Hamas militant involved in the October 7, 2023, attack during which nearly 400 people were killed at the Nova music festival. Video footage showed Sakr abducting Noa Argamani and her boyfriend on a motorcycle, an image that became widely recognized. After being held captive for eight months, Argamani was rescued in June 2024 during an Israeli operation. The IDF stated that Sakr supplied weapons to Hamas and coordinated attacks against Israeli troops and civilians. He was killed in the Nuseirat area of Gaza Strip by an airstrike.
