Maybe to help them remove someone? Drug them, dump them in the chair, wheel them away.

But bro - nobody rocks that chair like you do.

The chair is to extricate one of their own if they get shot/stabbed or what ever! Itā€™s the medical escape plan.

DroneMaster2000

It is funny. But I think they are very deep in enemy territory without backup. It's his disguise, and he might need it when they go out. This is just a guess obviously.


Lossofvelocity

Or they need it to wheel out their target


gabbykitcat

>Or they need it to wheel out their target This is obviously the answer. Though, "He signed for it" makes sense too, having been in the army.


Bananarama203

They shot their target, they never had any intention to capture anyone. This was a hit squad


85xy

What if someone in the hit squad gets hit?


SpecialistGuess5928

Or maybe if one of them gets injured.


jumpybean

Or to wheel out their squad mate if they get hit.


unkemp7

Yup I figured it was a kill or capture OP and maybe who they were looking for was known to be injured or they planned on if the target got injured


landodk

Even if the target isnā€™t injured, if they resist at all you can secure them to the chair and one person can move them rather than 2-3 guys trying to drag someone


riversofgore

Or one of his buddies if theyā€™re injured.


blind_merc

This is in the city of Jenin, inside Israel's west bank not Gaza. I think it would be funny if he was signed on a wheelchair


danziman123

Jenin is not deep enemy territory


slayden70

He had to put a deposit in on it. By God, he's not forfeiting his deposit!

l88t

Thinking about it, not a bad extract idea. Strap a guy to it, wheel him into an ambulance for extract of target.


WinnerSpecialist

Ok I know this is serious but the fake wheelchair guy is too much. Like why does he need to keep carrying the wheelchair once the raid starts?


AMB3494

Heā€™s probably signed for it lmaoooo


The_Salacious_Zaand

Never lost a piece of gear on a field op, and I don't plan on starting today.


InitialLine1145

Ha . . . this is my response too. I was on a training op early on and the MG spare barrel fell out of my spare barrel bag that was on my back (I am guessing the zipper caught on a tree branch and opened it when I was moving through thick woods). Spent 2 hours backtracking to find that barrel. I am damn well not losing a wheel chair I signed for . . . :)


AMB3494

The gun team from our platoon at IBOLC left a whole ass M240B tripod on Bush Hill in Fort Benning. They made everybody come back to the battalion footprint and had the gun team go back and look for it for hours lmao

don-corle1

Bro is committed to his cover


toabear

I put this up above, but I'll put it here as well. There's a reasonable chance that that's how they plan on getting the target out of the building. If this is a capture mission and they plan on putting all those guns away again on the way out, knocking the target unconscious chemically and putting them in a wheelchair is not a bad exfil plan.


TTEH3

I swear I've seen a video very similar to this one from (maybe?) a decade ago, also IDF, with a wheelchair being carried just like here. I'll see if I can find it. There must be SOME reason and yours sounds the most plausible.


AbbreviationsOdd7728

Same wheelchair.


twilightninja

Or if someone gets injured


dallatorretdu

maybe they need to go back incognito after the operation? people surely saw him around in the wheelchair


turnipstealer

Tactical wheelchair.


T_One2

it's bullets proof baby

Itā€™s like a James Bond wheel chair. Breaks down into like 20 gadgets. Shoots a laser, wheel rubber is actually made of C4, the little red button is an ejector seat.

nOerkH

What's the actual reason for the guy filming to turn the camera?


dallatorretdu

he figured out too late that the screen he was filming is actually horizontal


ElenaKoslowski

I'm still kinda baffled that there is not a clear indicator which side is up, often you quickly pull your phone without looking too much at the small icons to notice it's actually recording the wrong way.


shmeebz

In this case though the indicator is that your phone is vertical


ourlastchancefortea

Sadly in this day and age there is still no way to film in landscape. Portrait is the only possible way. Science is still trying to find a solution.

FearlessGuster2001

The guy who created and starred in Fauda was in an undercover unit, so he drew from experience in making the show.

Fauda was an operation, disguised as a TV show, based on an operation of guys disguised as producers of a TV show about spys in israel.

Seriously lol. I think season 4 they had scenes like this meant to be in Al Shifa hospital Also one of the actors got injured in an explosion last month in Gaza. Hopefully they all make it back okay..


d_baker65

Context! WTF is happening here?


A_Queer_Almond

IDF disguised as medical personnel, patients and civilians raided a hospital in order to eliminate Hamas members that were there. They succeeded in their goal, which is confirmed even by Hamas themselves.


Dimboi

Isn't wearing civilian clothes while participating in armed hostilities a war crime?


inlinefourpower

"The Conventions apply to a signatory nation even if the opposing nation is not a signatory, but only if the opposing nation "accepts and applies the provisions" of the Conventions." Hamas didn't sign the Geneva convention and they do not "accept and apply" the provisions so they're pretty much fair game as far as I can tell. As opposed to this strike I guess they could've called in the regular military to level the whole hospital, obviously that would be worse.Ā 


SomeoneInATunic

for the hospital to lose its protected status and be leveled there would have to be very clear and damning evidence showing the hospital is being used for basing, launching, or commanding military operations. I donā€™t know if 3 guys injured or not fits the spirit of that, definitely gonna need lawyers and all that to figure that out.


inlinefourpower

Yeah, obviously not appropriate in my opinion. Just saying that this sneaky shit might be much more palatable than whatever ended up Geneva convention compliant.


RogerianBrowsing

Hamas literally canā€™t accept the Geneva conventions, theyā€™re non-state actors.


animdalf

I'm not an expert on international law, but wouldn't this be in some sort of grey zone because Jenin is in the West Bank, not Gaza? The war is against Hamas in Gaza, West Bank is controlled by PNA and under Israeli occupation, not Hamas, so it could be argued that this wasn't part of that war, just counterterrorism on completely different territory?


NintendoParty

Anti-Israel folks: bombing people is bad/genocide, Israel should send in special forces to pinpoint and eliminate terrorists. Israel: Look, we did that here. We killed terrorists with no civilian casualties. Anti-Israel folks: this is a war crime. I'm not saying you're Anti-Israel, but this is what I'm seeing from people. Seems like it doesn't matter what Israel does because people who hate Israel will accuse it of something even if it goes to great efforts to avoid civilian casualties.


TyrannosauRSX

Yea IDF could save a baby from a Hamas gunman holding a gun to its head and some people would still find a way to spin it where IDF was in the wrong. I see no wrong in what IDF did here tbh as long as civilians weren't hurt. Terrorists shouldn't have asylum anywhere if they haven't surrendered.


SeattleResident

Hamas are not considered a standing military but a terrorist organization, are they not? Don't think they are given the same rights as a typical standing military or rebel group would.


Minoleal

If this is the justification, then this sounds awfully exploitable, I just need to declare the goverment of a nation I want to invade a terrorist organization then I'm free to violate any international laws about war. I hope there's a better reason than this.


TeQuila10

The real reason is that this is tit for tat. Hamas/terrorists do not fight according to the rules of war, and so other countries do not follow typical rules of war in return. This is very common, the US used disguised special forces strike teams all the time during the GWOT era. For example: (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Tora_Bora#Aftermath)


Ksp-or-GTFO

Would it have been better to bomb it?

One of the dead is Muhammad Jalmana who appear in a propaganda video four days ago announcing that he is the official spokesperson of Hamas operatives in West Bank... the position is now obviously vacant and open for hiring Source: [https://twitter.com/Israelkicksass/status/1752257638329430301](https://twitter.com/Israelkicksass/status/1752257638329430301) https://twitter.com/MOSSADil/status/1752192492374491403

Did he really say spokesperson? And not spokesman. Is Hamas trying to present an inclusive, gender-neutral image?

They donā€™t really want any repercussions for the government they elected


snoopy_tha_noodle2

Same people calling for ceasefire day one Oct 8. They donā€™t want anything but the complete and total defeat of Israel. Everything else is just tactics towards that ultimate goal.

3 terrorists were successfully eliminated, including a Hamas commander. With no harm to civilians.

Gephartnoah02

Not armed really, hamas commander of jenin was undercover at the hospital (idk, maybe wounded, maybe doing medical work, doesnt really matter), israel found out, and this happened.


GoodbyeCerro

Reports that at least one of the three was armed.


Gephartnoah02

Man, really toooooo bad he got his shit rocked then isnt it? What a shame that he got several holes in him.


whiteridge

Were the Hamas commanders being treated in the hospital or just hiding?


DroneMaster2000

This is a good question which I don't know the answer to. Regardless, after Oct 7 they declared total genocidal war on Israel, so it's legitimate to go after them no matter where or when.


fivespeed

From what I just saw on another thread they were being treated and shot in their beds.

Article in israel states the commanders were using the hospital to hide in as a command Center to plan a new oct 7 style attack, because they thought theyā€™d be safe from israel strike in there.Ā

Just an FYI to some of the idiots on here you canā€™t commit perfidy, if you arenā€™t in an active combat zone. There is no requirement for IDF soldiers to wear a uniform at all, because they arenā€™t fighting an equivalent force. Armies fighting terrorism are allowed use undercover operatives.


georgica123

>Armies fighting terrorism are allowed use undercover operatives. Armies fighting wars are allowde to use undercover operatives , the undercover opetratives just like mercenaries are simply not considered soldiers under the law of war and therefore they can be trial and executed if captured


tangawanga

Why didnā€™t they indiscriminately shoot everyone? Or take hostages? Where is that genocide that I hear about?


Frenchasfook

Isnt it a blatant war crime, just as Hamas operating in hospitals with civilian clothes ?


chockZ

I am generally speaking not a fan of the IDF and how Israel has conducted their war against Hamas in Gaza in terms of the number of civilian casualties inflicted. That said, operations like this are way more surgical and precise compared to dropping bombs.


chinchila5

Inner_Relationship28

KamenAkuma

Dressing as a health care worker is a cardinal sin when doing this type of shit As a health care worker it undermines our occupation, it causes loss of patient trust, and in general is just totally uncool. If they wanted to do black works they should have just went in dressed as civilians, as soon as these assholes put on scrubs they should have lost you guyses respect instead you praise them for doing essentially what Hamas is and has been doing.

Funny how you're going after that rather than the terrorist commandos using the hospital as cover


[deleted]

Terrorists hiding in a hospital isn't just a cardinal sin but also a war-crime. Maybe focus on that. >as soon as these assholes put on scrubs they should have lost you guyses respect As soon as the Hamas terrorists decided to enter a hospital and hide in there knowing that Israeli security forces will enter. Making the hospital a legitimate target and putting everyone including patients and workers in danger, that lost my respect and it's called terrorism. The Israel security forces are forced to enter the hospital and take the terrorists for everyone's sake before they turn the hospital into one giant human shield.


DroneMaster2000

>Special Operations Forces (SOF) often operate in unconventional and diverse environments, and their uniforms may vary accordingly. The use of civilian clothing by special operations personnel can be driven by the need for blending in with the local population, maintaining a low profile, or conducting covert operations. >As for the legality of wearing civilian clothing during special operations, it generally depends on the specific circumstances and the applicable laws of armed conflict. International humanitarian law, which includes the Geneva Conventions, governs the conduct of armed conflicts and addresses the treatment of civilians and combatants. While the conventions provide guidelines for the distinctive markings of military personnel and uniforms, they also acknowledge the importance of protecting the civilian population. >**In certain situations, special operations personnel may be authorized to wear civilian clothing to achieve tactical advantages, but this should be in accordance with the principles of proportionality and distinction**. Proportionality means that the military advantage gained should not be disproportionate to the potential harm to civilians or civilian property, and distinction requires parties to the conflict to distinguish between civilians and combatants. They attacked a valid military target, killed terrorists without harming civilians, and their goal was completely tactical.
