On the 6th Day of War
The 4th to be killed, a top Hamas leader, the most fanatical commander, Sheikh Nizar Rayyan, age 52, died in his home in Jabalya which was an 8 story apartment building along with two of his four wives and four of his twelve children today by the IDF airforce. Israel notified his family by phone to leave the house but they didn't.
The house was full of arms and ammunition. It was a warehouse communications center. There was a tunnel under the house for escape. Rayyan belonged to a Hamas military wing, Izzadin Kassam. He was the director and financier of the 2004 attack on Ashdod which killed 10 Israelis. He even sent his own son on a suicide attack which killed 2 Israelis in Gush Katif settlement of Elei Sinai in October of 2001.
