Hamas says 3 senior leaders killed in Gaza strike

http://www.aol.com/article/2014/08/21/hamas-says-3-senior-leaders-killed-in-gaza-strike/20950206/?icid=maing-grid7%7Cmaing13%7Cdl1%7Csec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D518730


In a text message sent to media, Hamas said three of its senior military leaders - Mohammed Abu Shamaleh, Mohammed Barhoum and Raed al-Attar - were killed, along with three other people.

Gaza police and medical officials said scores more people remained under the rubble of a four-story structure destroyed in the airstrike.

The three Hamas leaders are considered to be at the senior levels of its military leadership and were involved in a number of high profile attacks on Israeli targets.

The Israeli security agency Shin Bet confirmed the deaths of Shamaleh and al-Attar in an email, but did not mention Barhoum.
