The IDF on Friday night carried out dozens of strikes against Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip.
One of the strikes killed Ali Qadhi, a commander of the Hamas “Nukhba” commando force who led the brutal assault against Israeli Gaza border area communities last Shabbos/Simchas Torah.
The assassination was carried out via drone based on precise intelligence information from the Shin Bet and the IDF’s Intelligence Directorate.
Qadhi was sentenced to life in an Israeli prison in 2005 for the abduction and murder of an Israeli civilian. He was subsequently released in 2011 in the Gilad Shalit prison swap.

Those are the consequences of prisoner exchange, hope Isreal learned they’re lesson
That’s the problem with prisoner swaps, they only postpone the day of reckoning.
Prisoner swap.
“Qadhi was sentenced to life in an Israeli prison in 2005 for the abduction and murder of an Israeli civilian. He was subsequently released in 2011 in the Gilad Shalit prison swap.”
He should have been executed many years ago!
Yms”h, he should been sentenced to death in 2005 for his vicious crime. The terrorists as bargaining chips give murderers way too much leverage.
Al tifrush min hatzibur. Al taamod al dam reacha
I couldn’t live with myself if I were Gilad Shalit. How has he not gone into hiding in some remote country?
I would have been infinitely more sanguine & at ease releasing Yigal Amir שליט”א rather than Ali Qhqdi ימח שמו וזכרונו
IDF killed a very bad guy. If any of you scolds were freed from Hamas by a prisoner swap, you would think it’s a great idea. Stop second-guessing the people on the frontlines.
I once heard a brilliant solution to terror from a Sfardi cabbie in Israel: Lock them up in a small cage with bread and water only for the rest of their lives in some desert part of the country that is boiling by day and freezing at night. No TV, blankets, playing in the yard or medical care, ONLY a little bit of bread and water and thats ALL. Arabs may not mind death, but they dont want to suffer hell on this earth for the rest of their lives.
