Yasser Abu Shabab, leader of the Israeli-backed Abu Shabab militia in Gaza, was reportedly killed in a gunfight with members of the Abu Sanima family, who are from the same Bedouin Tarabin tribe. A post attributed to his wife on a group-affiliated Facebook page stated that he died while trying to mediate a dispute within the family, describing his efforts to resolve tensions peacefully. Additional reports suggest the conflict was related to his refusal to secure the release of a relative of another tribe member, with sources indicating his group had detained the individual. Both Israeli officials and Hamas-linked sources have described his death as the result of internal tribal conflict.
