Hamas commander (-2023)
Muhammad Atzar (محمد عتزار ; died 1 Nov 2023) was a senior commander in the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas. He served as the head of the anti-tank missile unit in the Gaza Strip, where he directed numerous operations targeting Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and armored vehicles.[1]
Atzar was killed in an Israeli airstrike on 1 November 2023 during the early phase of the Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip. The strike targeted a building in the Jabalia refugee camp, and was carried out jointly by the IDF and Shin Bet based on specific intelligence.[2]
According to Israeli sources, Atzar was involved in planning and executing numerous attacks using anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) against Israeli vehicles and force.[3]
He was identified as the Nine of Clubs in the Hamas most wanted playing cards.[4]
