Assassination of resistance leaders from “Shaghaqi” to “Zawawi”; A policy to destroy the resistance but with the opposite result
| Years of Zionist state terrorism policy in eliminating Palestinian leaders has not only weakened the resistance in the occupied territories, but has also made the new generation and the youth of the West Bank and Gaza Strip favor the option of armed resistance against the invaders. |
According to the international group Tasnim news agency, since its establishment in 1948, the Zionist regime has been the cognate of state terrorism and the physical elimination of its opponents. In order to create “deterrence” and survive against the Arab countries, in addition to the classic war, the Zionists have also used the weapon of “terror” many times.
The book “Get up and kill first” written by Ronen Bergman, a journalist, correspondent and analyst of military-security issues, is one of the best written works to show the history and philosophy of terror during Zionism. The surprise operation of the Al-Aqsa storm and the intelligence failure of the regime’s security organizations have caused the “physical elimination” of political leaders and commanders of the Islamic resistance system of the Palestinian people to be on Tel Aviv’s agenda once again.
The interesting point is that the Supreme Court of Israel, which is known as the so-called supporter of “democratic values” in the occupied territories, considers this crime to be justifiable and legal under the pretext of countering suicide operations! Accordingly, in the continuation of this analytical report, we will try to have a look at some of the assassinations of Palestinian leaders by.

Martyr Fathi Shaghaghi, the author of the book “Khomeini’s solution and Islamic alternative” returned to his native land, Palestine, through Egypt in 1981. In 1983, he was imprisoned in Gaza prison for almost one year, and three years later, he was sentenced to four years of definite imprisonment and five years of suspended prison on charges of military activity. When this Palestinian leader traveled to Libya to investigate the situation of Palestinian refugees, he went to the island of Malta after the Libyan conference.
He finally arrived in On October 26th, 1995, when he was staying in Salima, Malta, he was assassinated by two motorcyclists in front of his hotel.
The order to assassinate him from It was issued to Yitzhak Rabin (then Prime Minister of Israel). Apparently, Shaghaghi was originally supposed to be assassinated in Syria, but Mossad chooses a place outside of Syria to eliminate the leader of Islamic Jihad due to the fear of provoking public anger in Damascus.

Shahid Sheikh Ahmad Ismail Hassan Yassin, the founder and spiritual leader of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement, was martyred in the morning of March 22, 2004 by an Israeli helicopter missile attack. According to Israel Radio, Ariel Sharon, the prime minister of the regime at the time, personally supervised his assassination operation. After Ahmad Yassin’s martyrdom, Kofi Annan, the then Secretary General of the United Nations, condemned this murder. They condemned the crimes. In addition, a draft resolution condemning the illegal execution of Yassin and six other Palestinians was presented to the UN Security Council, which was vetoed by the American representative. More than 200,000 people attended the funeral of this Palestinian leader. Sheikh Ahmed Yassin was arrested in 1983 on charges of forming the Hamas movement and was sentenced to thirteen years in prison in one of the regime’s courts.
Martyr Abdulaziz Al-Rentisi
after The assassination of the spiritual leader of the Hamas movement, Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Rentisi, one of the leaders of the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement and one of the key figures during the first intifada (1988), was introduced as the political leader and spokesperson of the Hamas movement. Sharon’s cabinet did not limit itself to the assassination of Ahmed Yassin and just a few months later, made Abdul Aziz al-Rentisi the target of its terrorist operation.
On the 17th of April 2004, the Israeli Air Force targeted Al-Rentisi’s car with an Apache helicopter and Hellfire missiles and killed him. This great leader of the Hamas movement wanted the freedom of the entire geography of Palestine and had adopted uncompromising positions towards the Bush administration and the aggressive policies of America in the West Asian region.
Shaheed Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh
On January 19, 2010, the head of the Dubai Emirate Police announced in a press conference the assassination of Martyr Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh by the Mossad service. Shahid al-Mabhouh was one of the leaders of the Izz al-Din al-Qassam battalions, the military wing of the Hamas movement, who was accused by the Zionists of supplying weapons to Palestinian fighters in Gaza. He was one of the first members of the military branch of Hamas during the martyrdom of Sheikh Ahmed Yassin. He was brain dead, but after completing the forensic investigation, it was found that he was assassinated by Mossad agents. After the news of this crime was published, Khaled Meshaal, the then head of Hamas’s political office, published a statement and identified the Zionists as the main responsible for the assassination of al-Mabhouh.
Shahid Mohammad Al-Zawari
In addition to political leaders, military commanders and security figures of the Palestinian resistance, the Zionist assassination squad has a great interest in assassinating prominent scientific and engineering figures. During the last seven decades, the Zionist regime has targeted many Egyptian, Iranian, Syrian, Iraqi, etc. scientists because of their important role in the development of military-nuclear technologies.
Shahid Engineer Mohammad Al-Zawari, one of the prominent commanders of the Ezzedine al-Qassam battalions of the Hamas movement, was assassinated by the Mossad service in Tunisia in December 2016 due to the design and assembly of Ababil drones. According to information published by Hebrew sources, he managed to enter the Gaza Strip three times through underground tunnels and help the resistance forces in the production of these drones.
Years of assassination and removal of Palestinian leaders have not only weakened the resistance in the occupied territories, but also made the new generation and the youth of the West Bank and Gaza strip favor the option of armed resistance against the invaders. A few days ago, Ronen Bar, the head of Israel’s Intelligence and Internal Security Organization (Shinbet), openly spoke about the Zionist regime’s plans to target Hamas leaders in Lebanon, Turkey, and Qatar.
The threat of the head of Israel’s internal security service is reminiscent of the Zionist assassination squad after the events of the Munich Olympics in 1972. The Zionist authorities think that through threats and terror they can influence the will and decision-making process of the leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, without having a deep understanding of the culture of “martyrdom” and the place of this virtue among the Palestinian mujahids.
In other words, the assassination of the political-military leaders of the resistance will not only weaken the will of the Palestinian people; Rather, it will lead the new generation to the culture of standing against the occupying regime.
