GAZA CITY - Israel Airforce helicopters fired missiles at Hamas leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin's car as it left his house for a mosque at daybreak Monday, residents said, and mosque loudspeakers said he was killed.
Ambulances raced to the scene, and mosques in the area amplified the sound of Quranic verses, as announcements were made calling Yassin a "martyr," meaning he had been killed. Gunfire was heard in the Sabra neighborhood where Yassin lives.
Israel has been carrying out an offensive in the Gaza Strip against Hamas militants since a double suicide bombing attack in the port of Ashdod on March 14. The attack, which killed 10 Israelis, was carried out by two Palestinians who infiltrated into Israel from Gaza.

This war has been defined by the enemies of Israel all along. So long as they advocate Israel's elimination...and Yassin always has...Israel has no choice but to kill his terror organisation and him as well.

Fox News says that Yassin was hit coming out of a mosque. This story states that he was hit in his car when leaving home for the mosque...
