The Israel Defense Forces and the Shin Bet security service released several images Tuesday discovered in tunnels constructed by Hamas, including one showing five senior figures of the terror group who were killed during a strike.
The picture shows a group of Hamas leaders in a meeting while eating, according to a joint IDF and Shin Bet statement. The five led the Northern Gaza Brigade, the second largest in Hamas.
“With assistance from the IDF Intelligence Directorate and the ISA, IDF soldiers eliminated the brigade’s commander, Ahmed Al-Ghandoor, the Deputy Brigade Commander, Wael Rajab, and other senior operatives, including: the commander of the brigade’s support battalion, the head of the technical and operational support department, and the observation officer for the northern Gaza Strip,” the statement said.
Al-Ghandoor served as a member of the inner circle of Hamas’ military wing, authorities said. He was responsible for directing and managing all terrorist operations of Hamas in the Northern Gaza Strip area.
The five figures were killed during a strike on a tunnel in which they were purportedly hiding, the IDF said.
The tunnel was reportedly under civilian homes and close to an Indonesian hospital.
Israel has repeatedly accused Hamas of shielding itself in and around civilian areas and sensitive locations like hospitals, homes and schools.
Others killed include commanders of the Tsabra Battalion, Shati Battalion, Darj Tapah Battalion and Shejaiya Battalion, the IDF said.
The units were part of the Hamas’ Gaza City Brigade, its largest, the report said.
In Shati Battalion sector, the IDF took control of its central strongholds. That battalion is responsible for the central headquarters of Hamas, including the Hamas headquarters at the Shifa hospital.
In addition, the heads of its anti-tank, air formation and naval formation were eliminated, the IDF said.
5 down; 5 to go.
Very true, Larry. May they all be eliminated. Evil needs to be eliminated. God is using the IDF to eliminate the evil stock called Hamas.
Now Alberto the Israeli military needs to root out the Hamas leaders in America.
The American government does seem to not want to go after these terrorists in our nation.
And this administration is interfering with Israel and should butt out of their business.
Every Palestinian, if that’s what they are, are terrorist scum as Hamas is itself. So, they all have to go
If Palestinians are terrorists, where do they get their weapons? I thought Biden was supporting all the terrorists all over the world. He left a huge armoury in Afghanistan with Taliban. America sends the most modern weaponry to PKK, YPG claiming that Mr. Biden doesn’t see them as terrorists. PKK is a Kurdish terrorist organisation, they are constantly changing their names, YPG, God knows how many other names they acquire….. Terrorists are being called as missionaries nowadays in the West. Double standards, turning blind eye to a Massacre are filthy attitute. This senile Biden unashamedly said on April 24, ” Ottomans committed genocide to Armenians” Nobody cared about a senile man’s words, since Turkey and Armenians are having a happy neighbourly relations for a long time. Mr. Senile telling lies, during the WW1, Armenians were provoked to fight with Turks by the WEST. Atatürk (Our great leader) who is the 20th Century’s greatest General, moved Armenian’s from Ottoman lands……. We kicked all the bullies out of our country….. Atatürk was a JEWISH BOY….. He ended up as a MUSLIM general, and the father of the Republic of Turkey………
Netenyahu is not well at all. Physchologically he is down………. He found a senile man as an ally…….
This terribly sad massacre will bring Israel’s dream to an end and America is losing terrible blood on the level of credibility…… American values are sweeping the floors.
Patience. When the Messiah comes that is his first priority. Until then we have to do what we have to do. even though the rest of the world resents it.
Go straight to hell. Do not pass “Go”. Do not collect $200. And take all of your barbaric friends with you . . .
This is great news. Now, the IDF need to clean Hamas out. Then go after Hezbollah and the other group that has been sending missiles to our US navy ships. Can’t remember the group name.
Hmmm
At this point why would anyone believe any statement regarding the Palestinian prisoners in the Gaza Concentration Camp when virtually when independent verification of their claims finds a way to be seen by the public, it turns out that that not only is israel lying, but typically the exact opposite is usually the case.
Israel repeatedly violated the ceasefire by murdering more women and children in cold blood in Gaza…
We must root out the dual citizen israeli treasonous scum that have infected Washington whose masters are in Tel Aviv
