The sister of Ismail Haniyeh, a Hamas political leader, has become his latest family member to be killed in an Israeli strike, the terror group said.

Zahr died along with her husband and children overnight on Monday in an attack on Beach Camp, north of Gaza City.

Basem Naim, the Hamas spokesman, said it took the number of family members of the exiled leader who have been killed to around 100.

Based between Qatar and Turkey, Haniyeh has remained safe from assassination throughout the war with Israel. Qatar remains a key player in negotiations to free Israel’s remaining 120 hostages in Gaza.

But Haniyeh’s family remain in the line of fire. In April, his three sons were killed during the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr. Hazem, Amir and Mohammad died along with several of his grandchildren.

Haniyeh said at the time their “martyrdom” was a symbol of hope. “Through the blood of the martyrs and the pain of the injured, we create hope, we create the future, we create independence and freedom for our people and our nation,” he told Al Jazeera.
