Israeli media reported that three top Hamas commanders - Said Siam, the Interior Minister; security chief Salah Abu Shrek; and Mahmoud Watfah, head of the military wing - were killed in an air strike inside Jabaliya refugee camp. Israeli military sources told TIME that Siam, a hard-liner ranked third within the political hierarchy, had been on the list of targeted Hamas leaders since the 20-day-old operation began.
