October 5, 2024   

Summary of holiday and Shabbat news: The names of three IDF martyrs have been released, one who fell on the eve of the holiday in the ground operation in Lebanon, two from a drone strike from Iraq. Sergeant Daniel Aviv Chaim Sofer (19) from Ashkelon, a trainee in a designated track for a non-commissioned officer in the 13th Battalion of the Golani Brigade, and Corporal Tal Dror (19) from Jerusalem, a communications non-commissioned officer in the 13th Battalion, were killed by a drone strike launched from Iraq in the northern Golan on the night between Tuesday and Wednesday. This was authorized by the IDF spokesman. On Thursday evening, it was authorized to be published that Captain Ben Zion Falach, 21, from the town of Oz, a combat officer in the 202nd Battalion, Paratrooper Brigade, fell in battle in southern Lebanon on Wednesday. 24 additional soldiers were injured in the incident, including a soldier and a reservist from the 13th Battalion in serious condition, another soldier in moderate condition, and the rest in light condition. Nasrallah's successor, his cousin Hashem al-Din, was eliminated There is growing belief in the security establishment that Hashem Safi al-Din, Nasrallah's successor and cousin, was killed in an IDF attack in Beirut. Following foreign reports, it was announced that al-Din was apparently killed at Hezbollah's intelligence headquarters, after the Air Force dropped about 60 tons of bombs on the heart of Dahiyya. Such a powerful attack, similar to the attack in which Nasrallah was killed, is difficult to survive, but it appears that the security establishment is waiting for more solid findings before announcing the death of the Hezbollah Secretary-General's successor. According to various reports published earlier today, Hashem Safi al-Din was the target of the unusual attack on the night between Thursday and Friday. The head of the Hamas government in Gaza was assassinated, Ruhi Musthaha The IDF and Shin Bet spokespersons announce that it can now be confirmed that in a joint strike by the IDF and Shin Bet about three months ago in Gaza, the terrorist Ruhi Mushtaha, who served as head of the Hamas government in the Gaza Strip, was eliminated, along with the terrorist Sameh al-Sarraj, who held the security portfolio in the Political Bureau and the Executive Committee of Hamas, and the terrorist Sami Odeh, commander of Hamas's general security apparatus. Air Force fighter jets attacked, with precise intelligence guidance from the Intelligence and Shin Bet, the terrorists who were hiding in a fortified and equipped underground compound in the northern Gaza Strip, which allows senior officials to stay and command and control the organization over time. The compound was run by senior officials from Hamas' general security apparatus and served as a residence for the top Hamas government, headed by Mushtaha. After the attack on the compound and the elimination of the terrorists, the Hamas terrorist organization did not announce their elimination in order to prevent morale and functional damage to the organization's operatives, as it did with other eliminations. Ruhi Mushtaha was a veteran of the Hamas terrorist organization, with direct influence over the organization's use of force. Ruhi was involved in making decisions of a military nature while also serving as the head of government in the Gaza Strip, holding the prisoners' file in the organization's political bureau, and formerly holding the finance ministry. Mushtaha founded Hamas's general security apparatus with Sinwar, and served a prison sentence with him in an Israeli prison. Until the war, he was the most senior and central figure in Hamas's political wing in the Gaza Strip, and throughout the war he led Hamas's governmental activity while engaging in terrorist activity against Israel. Mushtaha was the right-hand man of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, and was considered one of his closest associates. Hundreds of Hezbollah terrorists were eliminated in an IDF operation in southern Lebanon. The IDF entered the fourth day of the ground maneuver in southern Lebanon last Friday, and so far more than 250 terrorists have been eliminated in the villages where the forces are operating. The attacks began after the evacuation of the civilian population, with 600,000 residents of southern Lebanon already evacuated northward. The IDF reported that bunkers, approach tunnels, and dozens of large weapons depots were located in the various activities of the forces. 12 terrorists who were about to carry out an attack from Tulkarm were eliminated The IDF and the Shin Bet confirmed that at least 12 terrorists from Hamas and Islamic Jihad were eliminated in a fighter jet attack carried out in Tulkarm on Tuesday. It was also reported: "In the attack to immediately thwart a terrorist attack and eliminate the head of Hamas' infrastructure in Tulkarm, which was carried out last Thursday (Thursday) in the Tulkarm area, at least 12 key terrorists from the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organizations were eliminated. "Along with the elimination of Zahi Yasser Abdel Razek Ofi, head of Hamas' infrastructure in Tulkarm, and Jith Radwan, a key terrorist in the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization in the Tulkarm area, it can now be confirmed that ten more terrorists were eliminated in the attack, nine of whom were from the Hamas terrorist organization: Majdi Salem, Ayman Tangi, Basel Nafe, Ahmed Gamal Obeid, Essam Kozah, Atir Magdi Hussein al-Luisi, Anwar Muhammad Musa Massimi, Mahmoud Kharush and Amon Anbatz, as well as the terrorist, Rakan Bilal, who is associated with the organization "Islamic Jihad terrorism.".
