Israel Eliminates Key Hezbollah And Hamas Commanders
IDF eliminates Hamas’ Shejaiya battalion commander and chief of Nukhba terrorist cell; commander of Hezbollah’s special operations unit killed in Israeli drone strike in Lebanon.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have succeeded in eliminating key Hezbollah and Hamas commanders, Israeli media reported Tuesday.
An Israeli drone strike on Tuesday reportedly killed Ali Najib Baydoun, commander of Hezbollah’s ‘special operations unit’ based in southern Lebanon, Israeli and Arab media claim.
With the Israeli military widening the ground operation, Hamas lost two senior terrorists. The most significant blow to the Gaza-based terror group came from the elimination of Muhammad al-‘Ajlah, commander of its Shejaiya battalion.
“Throughout the war, the terrorist al-‘Ajlah served as the commander of a combat support company in the Shejaiya battalion,” the IDF said in a statement Tuesday. “He was responsible for arming the battalion’s terrorists with weapons used to carry out terrorist attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF troops.”

Al-‘Ajlah headed the terrorist battalion for less than a week. The IDF eliminated his predecessor, Haitham Rizq Abd al-Karim Sheikh Khalil, in a recent strike.
He is the fifth Shejaiya battalion commander to be killed since October 7, 2023. “Al-‘Ajlah was the fifth commander of Hamas’s Shejaiya battalion to be killed since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war and the third since the start of the renewed operations in Gaza,” the Jerusalem Post observed, citing military sources.
IDF eliminates Hamas-Nukhba terrorist who massacred Israeli on Oct 7, paraded himself on hostage release ‘ceremony’
The IDF eliminated Hamza Wael Muhammad Asafah, chief of a Hamas-Nukhba terrorist cell, which committed horrendous crimes on October 7. Asafah was “head of a Nukhba terrorist cell in Hamas’ Deir-al Balah battalion who infiltrated Israeli territory and took part in the October 7th murderous massacre,” the IDF said in a statement Tuesday.
He also attended a depraved hostage release ‘ceremony’ staged by Hamas in early February. He and his fellow jihadists were at the scene when Hamas released three frail and emaciated hostages: Eli Sharabi, 52, Or Levy, 34, and Ohad Ben Ami, 56.
“Approximately two weeks ago, the IDF and ISA [Shin Bet security service] struck and eliminated in central Gaza the terrorist Hamza Wael Muhammad Asafah, head of a Nukhba terrorist cell in Hamas’s Deir-al-Balah battalion who infiltrated Israeli territory and took part in the October 7th murderous massacre,” the Israeli news website Arutz Sheva reported Tuesday. “As part of his role in the terrorist organization, Asafah participated in the cynical hostage release ceremony of the returning Israeli hostages Eliyahu Sharabi, Ohad Ben-Ami, and Or Levy.”
Reports suggest that Asafah was the same terrorist who was captured on a surveillance camera hurling two grenades into a safe house where Israeli civilians had taken shelter during the October 7 attack:

Unsurprisingly, he also served as a police officer. He was reportedly killed by the IDF in recent days. pic.twitter.com/NyUEPjhOQY

Report: Israeli drone strike kills commander of Hezbollah’s special ops unit
A Hezbollah commander, who led a terrorist special operations unit, was killed in an Israeli drone strike in Lebanon. The Lebanese media identified the slain terrorist as Ali Najib Baydoun.
Hezbollah’s “special forces,” trained by Iran’s Islamic Guard (IRGC), had advance plans of invading Israel in an October 7-style attack. As part of Hezbollah’s “Conquest of the Galilee” plan, these terrorist units were trained to breach the Israeli border, and massacre troops and civilians.

There is no immediate comment from the IDF.

The Times of Israel reported Tuesday:
The IDF says it killed a Hezbollah commander in a drone strike in southern Lebanon’s Aitaroun earlier today.
According to the IDF, the strike killed a team commander in Hezbollah’s special operations unit.
The IDF does not name the operative, but Lebanese media identify him as Ali Najib Baydoun.

We need some courageous muslims to step forward and fill the shoes or sandals of their fallen comrades by assuming important leadership positions. Please show us a photo along with your name so you can get the recognition you so richly deserve.
If they do that, they may have to miss some classes at Columbia U.
And so you can be issued a pager….
And a cell phone . . .
I will personally guarantee 72 virgins for each of them.
don’t you mean Virginians?
They killed some people. The opposition is filled with substitute leaders. It’s like al Qaeda leaders, who we’ve been eliminating each time somebody was blown up.
So what? There is no alternative to eliminating these bastards. Islamic doctrine ensures that there will be a never-ending supply of substitute terrorists aspiring to “martyr” themselves and claim their alleged Divine reward, but, you have to keep up the pressure.
Anything else is total appeasement and kowtowing to Islamofascist/Muslim terrorist belligerence.
LOVE these articles! Wouldn’t we all love to see the looks on faces when they contemplate eternal damnation?
The chilling murder, rape, and torture of God’s chosen people will bring such a surprise when the silly expectation is of multiple *virgins* completes the picture of people who don’t have an inkling of what’s coming. This includes the so called civilians who cheer at the destruction of the people and country of Israel and could be considered to be the icing on the cake.
If a high tempo of elimination is maintained, soon the replacements will be people who don’t have the awareness of plans, projects, personnel, etc. necessary to run their sections within the organization. They may also be less competent overall for having been repeatedly promoted without time to become familiar with their positions. It’s an opportunity for the Peter Principle to ruin the organization for having leaders who are incompetent for having been promoted too rapidly.
Dave, this is precisely the method of the IDf. Cut off the head of he snake. Sure, another will grow back quickly, but that one will be smaller, less effective, less competent, and eventually the whole snake will die of incompetence.
This process taks a while, but is far more effective than the more traditional MO. This steady attrition is very effective, and far less costly than wholesale destruction, and has the added advantage of reducing collateral damage to near zero.
The shock and awe of such surgical precisin is also very satisfying to watch. Sooner or later, that “next up” guy in the ever shorter lineup will decide “no me”. the entire structure is slowly collapsing.
I cannot remember any military combat in the past where this method has been so successfully implemented. The raids by the indians in the mid-1800’s migh come close, but were nowhere near as skillfully carried out, and not with enough consistency to be successful. In the end, it were the indians whose numbers shrank to the point of ineffectiveness. Now they mostly run casinos and fishing operations.

True enough. However-
“Al-‘Ajlah headed the terrorist battalion for less than a week. The IDF eliminated his predecessor, Haitham Rizq Abd al-Karim Sheikh Khalil, in a recent strike.
He is the fifth Shejaiya battalion commander to be killed since October 7, 2023. “Al-‘Ajlah was the fifth commander of Hamas’s Shejaiya battalion to be killed since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war and the third since the start of the renewed operations in Gaza,
At a certain point the quality of the replacements starts to degrade significantly. You might look at the decline in skill of Japanese and German fighter pilots in WWII for a parallel. In the early years of the war the pilots were superior to those of the Allies. However by 1944, despite the willingness of Axis pilots the situation evolved to the overwhelming superiority of Allied pilots resulting in “The Great Marianas Turkey Shoot”

You’re trying to reason with rhhardin. That’s futile.
Is there a downside? I don’t see one.
Hamas, Gazans, and many I’vy League students and professors are supporters of the weaponization of rape and infanticide. As such, they lose the right to walk among us. Eliminate them now.
If only the U.S. Military was as good as the IDF.
We’re working on that right now, We have some clean-up to do after the Biden years.
It’s been DEI-ing since Carter and before.
ackshully I’d say since back about the time Ike stepped down. Or was gently escorted to the sidelines.
The IDF seems to be on a first-name basis with terrorists. It’s amazing how much intel they must have on them.
Something tells me that a whole lot of Muslims in the area are not all in on the terrorist thing. They don’t like Jews but dislike the reign of violence the terrorist groups have brought down on them worse.
They might not like hamas because they prefer one of the other groups that isn’t put their life and their family’s lives are risk at least at the current moment.
Well, at least Israel was never so f……. stupid as to appoint someone like Mark Milley to be the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, which decimated our military. Trump, however, was definitely that stupid. And compare Trump’s dysfunctional CIA compared to Israel’s Mossad. We are where we are today because of Donald F. Trump.
Shut up, you blithering idiot.
If only Bill Clinton, Bronco Bama, and Joe Biden hadn’t destroyed our military’s war fighting capability.
It’s like playing a never-ending game of whack-a-mole, with these goose-stepping, genocidal Islamofascists/Muslim supremacists/Muslim terrorists, but, keep up the good work!
Keep it up! It ain’t over ’till
the fat lady singsall of Hamas and Hezbollah are dead.Israel has eliminated the the fifth commander of the Shejayiah battalion. Wouldn’t it be more productive to eliminate the whole battalion?
The IDF has been drilling down through Hamas’ most competent people. This would seriously erode the military capability of any military organization. Street fighters are a dime a dozen. Competent commanders require training, experience as leaders, and a strong grasp of all military matters (intel, comms, supply, personnel, the organization of training, etc), not just fighting. A military unit with incompetent leaders is more likely to meet disaster in the field. Indeed, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish between the disabilities of a unit with poor leadership from one with no leadership at all.
great news!
Hamas lost two senior terrorists.
I think it is more of a matter that Israel found them than Hamas lost them.
That was what I was going to say. Hamas didn’t lose anyone, the IDF knew right where they were.
