IDF have successfully eliminated scores of terrorists in Gaza in the last six weeks
2026-11-08


Text:

The IDF have successfully eliminated scores of terrorists in Gaza in the last six weeks. Anti Hamas Gazans continue to assist the IDF providing intelligence and information regarding the location and whereabouts of those the IDF targets . Arab clans are working very closely with the IDF and are gradually gaining the confidence of the wider population who have endured years of totalitarian Islamic misery and destruction under the rule of the Iran’s subservient stooges .

Hamas operatives in Gaza continue to be eliminated.
For the six-week period 26 September – 7 November 2026, I can identify at least 24 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) operatives reported killed in IDF announcements covered by the sources I found.
Here is the breakdown:

Date Reported operatives killed
7 October 2 Hamas
17 October 2 Hamas, 1 PIJ
25 October 1 Hamas, 1 PIJ
26 October 2 Hamas, 2 PIJ
28 October 6 Hamas
4 November 5 Hamas, 2 other groups

Total 24

Important qualifications:
The 24 is a documented figure from specific announcements, not a verified comprehensive six-week total.

The 4 November figure includes one Army of Islam operative, so not all 24 were Hamas or PIJ.

These are principally IDF-reported identifications and casualty claims, rather than an independently verified count.

My assessment: At least 22 of the 24 identified individuals were reported as Hamas or PIJ operatives, with the remaining two belonging to other organisations. The actual total may be higher because the available reports do not capture every IDF operation during the period
