Brand new video in from Hamas where the military leader of that group has been taken out.

Hamas as an Israeli air strike in the Gaza Strip has killed the commander of its military wing in Israel is now saying this.

I some have been -- not that job Berry had been running hamas' militant wing for ten years was in charge of Hamas.

During the second Intifada here that of course killed so many Israelis he was killed in -- targeted killing.

In the Gaza Strip a missile from the Israeli Air Force took out a car he was riding in the past hour there have been at least two more targeting killings.

Suffice it to say the Israeli military operation will continue to grow.
