Israel Seizes Trove of Intelligence on Hamas in Gaza Offensive

(NBC News) Dan De Luce - Israel has secured a trove of intelligence on Hamas during its military offensive in Gaza, giving a detailed picture of its internal workings. The intelligence has been gleaned from seized hard drives, cellphones, laptops, and maps, sources said. It includes extremely detailed information about Hamas' leadership, command and control, and communications. The intelligence successes most likely enabled Israel to locate and kill Hamas' No. 3 official, Marwan Issa, in an airstrike last week in Gaza. As it tries to track Hamas' leaders and weapons stockpiles, Israel is also receiving assistance from U.S. intelligence agencies. "The rest of the top [Hamas] leaders are in hiding, likely deep in the Hamas tunnel network, and justice will come for them, too," White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said Monday.
