Israel hunts Hamas terrorists from the October 7 massacre through Gaza, the world

Israel continues to carry out a vast campaign to locate and eliminate the Palestinian terrorists involved in the massacre of October 7, 2023, analysts said in Fox News Digital, describing politics as an old decades of decades aimed at both deterrence and retribution.

Last month, Israeli defense forces announced the elimination of Hasan Mahmoud Hasan Hussein, who, on October 7, led a brutal attack on a bomb refuge on road 232 in Kibbutz Re’im, where 16 people were brutally murdered in the attack. Four others were taken hostage to Gaza, notably Hersh Goldberg-Polin Israeli, which was then killed in captivity.

The FDI also confirmed the death of Yousef Mahmoud Muhammad Juma’a, head of the Hamas cell who made a descent into Kibbutz alumim; Mahmoud Afana, who boasted sadly by his parents from the murder of 10 Jews during the invasion of terrorism; And Mohammed Hassan Mohammed Awad who held hostages killed Shiri Bibas and his two children, Kfir and Ariel and were involved in their murders, as well as the death of American citizens Gad Haggai and Judy Weistein.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has sworn to settle the scores with Hamas, saying before: “We will not rest, and we will not be silent. We will continue, we will find you and we will settle the accounts with you.”

Major-General (Ret.) Amos Yadlin, former FDI intelligence leader, said this approach dates back to decades.

“After the massacre of the Munich Olympic Games (out of 11 Israelis) in 1972, it was decided that all the people involved in the planning and execution of these horrible terrorist attacks will be found and killed for three purposes: the first consists in pre -empting new attacks, the second is a deterrence and the third is a punishment,” told Fox News Digital.

He said the same principles applied when the United States targeted Usama bin Laden after the Al-Qaeda attacks on September 11 and, more recently, the Islamic Head of State Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. “None of these terrorists should die of old age,” he said.

Yadlin explained that the information is gathered by the Shin Bet, the internal security agency of Israel similar to the FBI; Aman, the Military Intelligence Directorate of Israel, which is the largest intelligence agency in the country; And mossad, when the target is located abroad. Strikes are generally carried out by Air Force, which, according to him, is very precise to target threats.

On July 31, 2024, Israel assassinated the leader of the Hamas political office, Ismail Haniyeh, Iran, during his visit to the inauguration of President Masoud Pezeshkian, using an explosive apparatus planted secretly in the guest house of Tehran where he stayed.

The FDIs also killed the former terrorist chief of Hamas in Gaza Yahya Sinwar; Hamas’ armed wing, Mohammed Deif, and more recently, Sinwar’s brother Mohammed, who succeeded him.

The Shin Bet has created a special center devoted exclusively to the location of Hamas terrorists who participated in the October 7 massacre, according to Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Lior Akerman, principal researcher at the Reichman University Policy and Strategy Institute.

“They were identified on the basis of intelligence, photographs, testimonies, investigations and even more. And from that moment, hunting begins until they are arrested or eliminated,” Akerman, a former Bet Shin agent, in Fox News Digital.

Yahya Sinwar, represented as a rat hidden in a tunnel, is the ACE card of the bridge given to Israeli soldiers.

Akerman said that Bet Shin followed the same approach during the second intifada, the Palestinian terrorist war in the early 2000s. He noted that Aziz Salha – who acquired the world notoriety of a video showing him two Israeli soldiers in the twin city of Ramallah, El -Bireh on October 12, 2000 – was killed in October 2024 Gaza.

Brig Idf. Gen. (Res.) Amir Avivi stressed that intelligence collection on terrorists is a complex process that relies on several sources.

“The Shin Bet and the intelligence of the army work with many types of sources, some are human intelligence (humint), based on informants who share information. Other cyber, digital capacities to exploit computers or phones, the use of cameras and visual intelligence (shared) and the ability to monitor areas with drones,” said Avivi to Fox News Digital.

“You would need two sources to check the position of a terrorist and also make sure that it is isolated enough for there to be no danger for civilians. Once you have managed to find the best operational conditions, you then choose the attack method,” he added.

Avivi said that the collection of information on Hamas terrorists and the organization’s structure has been a continuous effort for years, including the mapping of platoons, businesses and battalions, as well as the identification of commanders. Before the attacks of October 7, Israeli security forces already had in -depth intelligence on numerous terrorists involved, in particular by relying on satellite images and intercepted communications.

Brig. General (RES.) Nitzan NURIEL, former director of the office of the fight against terrorism at the Prime Minister’s office (2007-2012), told Fox News Digital that Israel had captured large volumes of Hamas data, including gigabytes of clips, images and documents, who helped analysts develop critical information.

While the massacre of October 7 implied many more attackers than the typical terrorist attacks in Israel – with some 6,000 works of assault on the border that day – Nuriel said that the methods to follow them remain the same; The largest scale means, however, that the process will take more time.

“I believe that one of the reasons why Hamas will be willing to accept President Trump’s peace plan is that it allows many of them to stay outside the weapons of Israel,” he continued. “If they accept the whole proposal, some of them will survive.”
