The IDF killed a Hamas<\/a> terrorist who kidnapped 22-year-old Shani Louk during the October 7 massacre in an airstrike on the Jabalya area of the Gaza Strip, the military announced on Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hamas terrorist Tamer Mohammad Ibrahim Al-Zabaq, who infiltrated Israeli territory on October 7<\/a> and participated in the massacre, was killed in the strike on Monday.<\/p>\n

In the aftermath of October 7, 2023, Al-Zabaq advanced terrorist attacks against Israeli troops and attempted to rebuild Hamas terrorist infrastructure in Gaza, according to the IDF.<\/p>\n

Louk, a German-Israeli dual citizen and tattoo artist, attended the Nova music festival near Re\u2019im<\/a> on October 7. She was kidnapped during the massacre and was believed to have been alive when she was brought to Gaza.<\/p>\n

On October 7, footage of Hamas terrorists<\/a> transporting Louk\u2019s partially clothed body through the streets of Gaza in the back of a pickup truck was widely spread, raising concern over her condition.<\/p>\n

In late October 2023, forensic examiners confirmed Louk’s death after they uncovered and identified a piece of her skull.<\/p>\n

In May 2024, IDF soldiers operating in Gaza located Louk\u2019s remains and returned her to Israel for burial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The IDF killed a Hamas terrorist who kidnapped 22-year-old Shani Louk during the October 7 massacre in an…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":652474,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[50,69,51,42,1031,43,58,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-652473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-gaza","tag-gaza-strip","tag-hamas","tag-headlines","tag-idf","tag-news","tag-the-october-7-massacre","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=652473"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/652473\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/652474"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=652473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=652473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=652473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
