Fursan Mahmoud Abdullah Khalifa[1] (Arabic: فرسان محمود عبد الله خليفة; 8 April 1983 – 25 November 2023) was a senior Palestinian military commander of Hamas and the Qassam Brigades.[2] He was born in Tulkarm to a prominent senior Hamas leader and military commander.[3][4] He was in detention under the Israeli government from 2003 until 2011, when he was released as part of the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange, and was deported to the Gaza Strip.[5] He was later assassinated by the IDF during Operation Iron Sword.[6]

Early life and career

Khalifa was born in Tulkarm on 8 April 1983 in the Nur Shams refugee camp. During the Second Intifada, he became a prominent member of the al-Qassam Brigades and was captured and arrested by Israel on 7 April 2003 for conspiracy to commit terror attacks against it.[7] He was released by Israeli authorities in 2011 as one of over 1,000 Palestinian prisoners exchanged for the life of captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, ending up in Gaza.[5]

Following his release in 2011, Khalifa became one of the most prominent members of the West Bank division of the al-Qassam Brigades.[8] He was the first official to be appointed a commander for the Northern West Bank.[9] Israel alleges that since his release, he has directed several terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians,[7] and that he has worked to strengthen the military infrastructure of Hamas in the West Bank.[10]

Personal life

Khalifa held a Bachelor's degree in "Social and Family Development" from Al-Quds Open University, and in 2021, obtained a Master's degree from their Institute of Sustainable Development.[11]

Death

Khalifa was killed as part of the Israeli response to the surprise invasion during the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip.[3] His body was found on November 25, 2023 under the rubble following the entry of Palestinian forces into a building following the temporary ceasefire. A funeral was held for him in his hometown of Tulkarm.[12]
