Hamas commander who conjured plot to paraglide terrorists into Israel for October 7 bloodbath is wiped out by IDF | The Sun
THE IDF has wiped out the Hamas commander who conjured the October 7 bloodbath plot to paraglide terrorists into Israel.
Army officials confirmed this morning that Nasim Abu Ajina, the commander of the Beit Lahia Battalion of Hamas' Northern Brigade, was killed in a Monday airstrike.
Footage shared by the IDF showed the moment the terror boss's home is completely blown up by Israeli jets.
Abu Ajina was responsible for the October 7 massacre, where Hamas unleashed its terror on Israel and brutally murdered more than 1,400 men, women, and children.
He had previously led Hamas's aerial units and contributed to the development of the organisation's UAVs and paragliders, YNet reports.
A statement by the IDF and Israel's security agency Shin Bet said Abu Ajina's elimination is a significant blow to Hamas's ability to disrupt the IDF's operations on the ground.

The tunnels are a key objective for Tel Aviv as it expands ground operations inside Gaza to wipe out Hamas in the country's "second stage" of war.
On Monday evening, Benjamin Netanyahu slammed Hamas after they released a disturbing video with three Israeli hostages.
The women, seen under duress, were forced to slam the Israeli government and called for an urgent ceasefire.
Speaking in Hebrew, the trio also revealed they have been in captivity for 23 days.
The twisted video description provided by Hamas read: "A number of Zionist prisoners held by Al-Qassam send a message to Netanyahu and the Zionist government."
Netanyahu has condemned the video as "cruel psychological propaganda".
"We are doing everything to bring all the kidnapped and missing people home," the Prime Minister wrote on X.
Hamas – known for its psychological warfare tactics – released the video on its social networks, which was disseminated rapidly by foreign and Israeli media.
It is unclear who the women are and if they are speaking freely.
