Israel assassinates Gaza’s anti-narcotics police chief, interior ministry mourns him

GAZA  (Palestine Foundation Information Center)Gaza’s ministry of interior and national security has mourned Brigadier General Ahmed al-Qudra, chief of the anti-narcotics police and member of the police command council, saying he was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike in Khan Yunis early Tuesday morning.

In a statement, the interior ministry said that Qudra had remained dedicated to his job throughout the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza and never hesitated to serve his people.

The ministry accused the Israeli occupation army of systematically targeting the security and police sector and its members during its ongoing war on Gaza, “as part of its attempts to create security chaos and instability” in the war-ravaged territory.

The ministry affirmed that it would continue to fulfill its duties to the fullest and vowed to stand strongly in the face of Israeli attempts to undermine the internal front and create chaos in Gaza.
