Translated from Hebrew by Google:
Defense Minister Galant convened after midnight the Chief of Staff and the head of the Shin Bet for a special situation assessment, approved the operation - and ordered them:
1. Eliminate Muhammad Daf, this time with maximum armaments against optimum intelligence that entered in the last day
2. Gallant and the top of the IDF estimated that there would be incidental damage with dozens of casualties - but in the face of the value of the attack, they ordered the Air Force to drop a number of heavy bombs, which crack bunkers and various missiles at the same time, from fighter planes and unmanned aerial vehicles
3. The intelligence on Daf's location was accumulated recently and was tightened last night when he came up from the tunnels to the Hamas compound in Mawasi. The Amman and the Shin Bet relied on technological but also human (human) SIGINT surveillance.
4. In contrast to Sinwar who was concerned with his survival, Daf continued to manage Hamas militarily, with continuous operative activity and therefore met with Brigadier General Salama Khan-Younes this morning. It can be assumed that the two were prepared for a repeat raid by the IDF on the city
5. According to some estimates in Israel, Daf hid during the months of the war in the tunnels under the Khan Younis refugee camp, an area where the IDF maneuvered six months ago
6. The top security officials estimate that the operation may tactically delay the negotiations for the hostage deal but will strategically serve the move due to the increased pressure on Hamas
7. Hamas mainly has 4 top officials left - Sinwar and his brother Mohammed, Brigadier General Azza Haddad and Brigadier General Rafih Sha'abna. An operational opportunity erupts - and they too will be eliminated
