The IAF conducted an IDF and ISA intelligence-based strike, eliminating the terrorist Abd al-Hadi Sabah, a Nukhba Platoon Commander in the Western Khan Yunis Battalion. The terrorist operated from a shelter in the Humanitarian Area in Khan Yunis.
Abd al-Hadi Sabah was one of the leaders of the infiltration into Kibbutz Nir Oz during the murderous October 7th Massacre. Moreover, throughout the war, Sabah led and advanced numerous terrorist attacks against IDF troops.
Prior to the strike, numerous steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions, intelligence, and aerial surveillance.
"The IDF and ISA will continue to operate against all of the terrorists who took part in the murderous October 7th Massacre," the IDF stated.

Lots of acronyms, but I get the idea that DOA describes many of the Hamas types.
Mossad does not play
I will never understand the Moslem mind.
But this I know, Moslems are a threat to all
of us and unlike
the famous quote” Ask not for whom the bells toll.....”
Moslems have no bells as they destroy them all.
Good riddance.
Estimates before the war put hamass plus pij fighter counts between 30,000 - 40,000.
Israel estimates they’ve outright killed around 20,000.
Usual casualties in war as I understand it are about 1:1 KIA:WIA. Which begs the question: Is Hamas just about out of able bodied fighters?
“Which begs the question: Is Hamas just about out of able bodied fighters?”
Don’t know, but one thing for sure - I suspect their Recruiting Offices are not exactly overflowing, given those numbers.
We’re all well past playing.
The Dupuy Institute suggests much higher ratios than that.
See: https://dupuyinstitute.org/2016/10/27/wounded-to-killed-ratios/
Their estimates of wounded-to-killed range from 4.3 (Korea) to 9.98 (Afghanistan).
If the Israeli estimates are correct, then it is quite possible that HAMAS/Hezbollah has seen well in excess of 100,000 casualties. Not all of these would have been fighters. In fact, most of them would not have been fighters.
HAMAS claimed to have 40,000 fighters before the Oct 7 attack. If true, that would have required about 400,000 "non-combatants" to support them. Armies need cooks, cleaners, medics, supply clerks, mechanics, truck drivers, plumbers, electricians, and a host of other support staff to keep running.
All of those people are targets in a serious war.
Is Hamas just about out of able-bodied fighters?
Probably very close. If they are given a long enough "cease-fire", they may be able to convert some of their support staff to fighters. It is a weak possibility without access to external assistance. In Gaza, they seem to be fighting with other factions for safe areas and supplies.
Lots of virgins keeping busy this year, LOTS.

Muslims are simple to understand, if you’ve sinned no matter how bad according to the Koran you’re going to hell when you die, but if you die for Allah/Islam killing non-believers you become a martyr and all is forgiven. making sudden jihad syndrome likely for any Muslim anywhere.
