IDF: The IDF eliminated a Hamas terrorist who posed a threat to forces in the area and operated under the guise of a journalist

Yesterday (Wednesday), IDF troops in the Southern Command struck and eliminated Muhammad Samir Muhammad Washah, a key terrorist in Hamas’ rocket and weapons production headquarters, who had been planning terrorist attacks against IDF soldiers operating in the area.

Prior to the strike, steps were taken to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions, aerial surveillance, and additional intelligence.

Should there be any changes in the situational assessment, the public will be updated accordingly.

The IDF is prepared to operate both defensively and offensively.

IDF: The Chief of the General Staff during a situation assessment on the outskirts of Bint Jbeil in southern Lebanon: “The primary arena of our fighting is here in Lebanon. The objective defined for you is the removal of the direct threat to the residents of the north, which you are carrying out with determination”

“The IDF is at war. We continue to fight against Hezbollah with great intensity. Yesterday, we entered into a ceasefire in Iran, the IDF’s achievements in the war against Iran are unprecedented and historic. Iran before this war is not the same Iran; it is far weaker. We are prepared to resume fighting with great determination if required at any given moment”

The Chief of the General Staff, LTG Eyal Zamir, conducted a tour today (Thursday) in southern Lebanon and held a situation assessment. He later approved plans for the continuation of operations with the command leadership.

Participating in the visit were the Commander of the Northern Command, MG Rafi Milo; the Head of the Technology and Logistics Directorate, MG Rami Abudraham; the Commander of the 98th Division, BG Guy Levy; the Commander of the Givati Brigade, COL N.; and additional commanders.

The Chief of the General Staff expressed his appreciation to the 98th Division and the Givati Brigade for their professionalism and determination in operating on the battlefield.

Following his visit, the Chief of the General Staff also met and spoke with the Head of the Upper Galilee Regional Council, Asaf Langleben.

Remarks by the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Eyal Zamir: “The IDF is at war. We continue to fight against the Hezbollah terrorist organization with great intensity. Yesterday, we entered into a ceasefire in Iran, we are prepared to resume fighting with great determination if required.

The primary arena of our fighting is here in Lebanon. We continue to deepen the ground operations and continue to strike Hezbollah. This is a very powerful operation; our troops are operating along the front lines and at depth.

The IDF’s achievements in the war against Iran are unprecedented and historic. Iran before this war is not the same Iran; it is far weaker. We have struck across Iran’s entire chain. The blow Iran sustained is one that affects Hezbollah. Hezbollah is isolated within Lebanon and cut off from its strategic artery in Iran. The Lebanese government understands more than ever the magnitude of the problem posed by the presence of a radical, fanatical terrorist organization on its soil.

While you are operating and advancing at the front, yesterday we delivered a heavy and powerful blow to Hezbollah. They left Dahieh and moved to other locations from which they managed the fight. The objective defined for you is the removal of the direct threat to the residents of the north, which you are carrying out on the ground.

As you advance and fight the enemy, when you look back we see the lights of the communities (of northern Israel), this is the purpose of your mission. We are situated across all fronts and serve as the buffer between the communities and the enemy. Our mission is clear - to continue deepening the damage and to continue weakening Hezbollah.

I see the steadfast spirit you demonstrate. You are wearing Hezbollah down.
“In every arena, we are required to operate from a position of clear advantage and decisively defeat the enemy.” There is an opportunity here, we will continue to act to restore long-term security to the residents of the north.”

Attached are the following:

Footage of the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Eyal Zamir, speaking with commanders in southern Lebanon yesterday (Thursday): https://bit.ly/4stL6lQ

From the remarks of the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Eyal Zamir:

“The IDF is in a state of war; we are not in a ceasefire on the northern front. We continue to operate here on this front —this is our primary operational focus. In Iran, we are in a ceasefire, but we can return to operating there at any moment, and with great intensity.

In Lebanon, we are continuing to deepen our achievements and expand our operations. The area where you are operating is extremely important—this is Lebanon, this is against Hezbollah. Here we are active, employing many means and many of our capabilities. The achievements of this war so far are historic.

Iran before this war is not the same Iran—it is much weaker. The blow Iran has sustained also affects Hezbollah, because Hezbollah understands that it is now isolated. It is isolated within Lebanon, cut off from its strategic backing—from those who fund it and supply it with munitions—and therefore this is a very significant achievement.

While our troops operate along the forward defensive area, earlier this week, delivered a General Staff–level command strike in Beirut and in Beqaa, and I tell you—the terror organization is being effected deeply. They have left Dahieh and moved to other locations, to northern Beirut and various other neighborhoods, from where they are conducting terror.

Hezbollah encounters our fighter jets, both at the border and deep within Lebanon. It encounters our ground forces—we are removing the direct threat to our communities. This is a highly significant event, a very important achievement.

We are present on all fronts—as we are in Gaza, as we are in Syria—so too here in Lebanon. We are forward-positioned, creating a defensive area with our forces, our armored vehicles, and our troops between the enemy and the communities. This is our role; this is the mission.

I believe this mission is very clear. Great appreciation for the people—the very best in the world—with tremendous spirit, followed by the highest-level capabilities. I do not recall in the history of the IDF combined formations—infantry, armor, and engineering—with such strong capabilities. So, great appreciation—take care of yourselves and carry out your missions. Good luck.”
