The Israeli military has killed about half of Hamas’s midlevel commanders in Gaza, Israeli officials said, as its troops pressed forward Wednesday into the suspected hiding place of the group’s leader in a bid to eliminate its top brass.
Israel is deploying a deliberate strategy to find and kill the militant group’s midlevel operatives to disrupt Hamas’s ability to fight in Gaza, though military analysts caution doing so is unlikely immediately to deliver the victory it craves.
Israel has so far failed to assassinate the U.S.-designated terrorist group’s senior leadership, which includes Yahya Sinwar, leader of Hamas in Gaza, and Mohammed Deif, the head of the group’s armed wing. But fighting is now coalescing around Khan Younis, one of Hamas’s strongholds in the southern strip, where the Israeli military says Sinwar and others could be hunkering.

Violence has never been a good solution. This generation falling will be succeeded by another generation.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should military efforts focus on the complete removal of a group's leadership, and why do you think this would or wouldn't lead to peace?
@9HG6W8FRepublican6mos6MO
it would not lead to peace because it would just be creating more bad things.
@PopulistHank6mos6MO
Who will Israel negotiate with if the Hamas negotiators are dead?
@9HG6VYS6mos6MO
if we remove the groups leaders then they will crumble so they stop
@9HG782W6mos6MO
because it would involve more killing on both sides.
@9HG7FPP6mos6MO
I think they should stop killing civilians and take back their hostages from Hamas and just call it a peace
@9HGGXLL6mos6MO
The fact that this might be propaganda on some level is not an impossibility. There should be an impartial report on the casualties during this war, including roughly categorizing the deceased (male - juvenile, female - adult)
@9HGDJRVRepublican6mos6MO
Its terrible and tragic what is happening with these kids and young men, and woman.

@9HGCL226mos6MO
It's sad these countries are going through so much.
@OriginalMeerkatSocialist6mos6MO
@9HCLLFM 6mos6MO
I think it is a good thing that they killed them Hamas is a terrorist organization that needs to be stopped
@9HGG5J46mos6MO
End the terrorists stop the terrorism
Israel is taking drastic measures against something that could have been possibly semi peacefully ended.
@9HGDH746mos6MO
I think that it's not talked about in the world enough, and we've been doing nothing about it. It needs to be talked about and we need to help the children and families that are struggling in the world around us.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
@9HGG49C6mos6MO
Israel need to stop killing Palestinians
@9HGD88YRepublican6mos6MO
Its just crazy how many people are dying.
@9HG73Z36mos6MO
It is surprising now that a war is still happening
@9HGJRNY6mos6MO
I think we need to stop focusing on stuff we aren’t apart of cause all it does is rule everyone up
@9HGB7VC6mos6MO
Israel has to stop committing genocide and we have to stop funding it
@9HGD8NN6mos6MO
Israels winning and fighting back is great news
@9HH65CV5mos5MO
Palestine is currently undergoing a cleansing from a force that will continue to slaughter and force these people to submit until it is no more. I do not condone Israel for its actions and hope to see not only a cease-fire but better treatment for the people of Palestine and consequences for Isreal's horrid actions.
@9HGLCZJ6mos6MO
Israel is innocent and being attacked.
@9HG9MML6mos6MO
Israel should be charged with war crimes.
