        The Israeli military said on Friday it
        killed senior Hamas official Izz al-Din Kassab, describing him
        as one of the last high-ranking members of Hamas responsible for
        coordinating with other groups in the Gaza Strip, in an
        airstrike in Khan Younis.
        
        The Palestinian group mourned the death of Kassab in a
        statement, adding that he was killed along with another Hamas
        official named Ayman Ayesh in an Israeli attack on their car in
        the enclave.
        
        Hamas sources told Reuters that Kassab was a local group
        official in Gaza but not a member of its decision-making
        political office.
