According to accounts gathered by Safa News Agency, a white bus arrived on Mars Street in the Al-Mahatta neighborhood early Monday morning, appearing to carry displaced women and their belongings.

Witnesses said nine individuals dressed in women’s clothing — some veiled, others with exposed faces — exited the bus and stormed Sarhan’s home, shooting him dead and arresting his wife and children.

Palestinian media reported that over 30 Israeli airstrikes were launched over a 40-minute span to secure the special forces’ extraction. Helicopters and tanks provided additional firepower, reportedly killing and wounding dozens.
