I don’t think they plan to actually win a law suit. The threshold for libel is too high. To prove intentional malice. And it was an op ed. Not a news piece.
I think they want to force the times to reveal how they vet their sources
It’s not going to change anything but I don’t think they can give the times a pass on this one. -
Hamas’s military chief in Gaza, Izz ad-Din al-Haddad, made a series of operational mistakes in the months after the U.S.-brokered ceasefire that allowed Israeli intelligence to track and ultimately kill him in a strike on a Gaza City apartment, security sources told the Israeli news site Walla.
Haddad — known to Hamas operatives as “the Ghost” and described by Israeli officials as the last surviving senior architect of the October 7, 2023, massacre — was killed Friday in a precision strike on a residential building in Gaza City’s Rimal neighborhood. The IDF said three fighter jets dropped 13 munitions on the building and a vehicle that left the area moments later, killing Haddad along with his wife and a daughter, according to Hamas sources. Both of his sons had been killed in earlier Israeli strikes, in January and April of last year. Emergency services in Gaza put the total death toll at seven, with more than 50 wounded.

According to the defense sources cited by Walla, Haddad had for years moved almost exclusively through Hamas’s underground tunnel network, confiding his movements only to a tiny circle of aides. He survived multiple assassination attempts, dyed his hair and shaved much of his beard to alter his appearance, and reportedly surrounded himself at times with Israeli hostages to deter strikes.

In the end, the strike found Haddad above ground, in a hideout apartment in Rimal, surrounded by family members. When people inside the building attempted to flee in vehicles, the IDF struck a second time, hitting the car to prevent the escape of his associates and any possibility that Haddad himself might survive.
