Troops from the Givati Brigade, operating under the command of the 162nd Division, eliminated terrorist Sa’ed Saeed Zaki Dahnoun Last week in close-quarters combat, the IDF spokesman announced on Sunday. He was a company commander and deputy head of the Rocket Array in the northern Gaza Strip for the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization, according to the IDF. Sa'ed infiltrated Israeli territory and participated in the brutal massacre on October 7. Additionally, he planned and led several ambushes against IDF troops in the Beit Lahia area, the spokesman said. In footage from the operation, documented by IDF troops, two terrorists, including Sa'ed, are seen covered in blankets as they advance toward IDF forces under the cover of rain and darkness. In a swift target engagement, the troops eliminated Sa'ed. Following his elimination, the other terrorist advancing alongside him surrendered to the soldiers who had encircled him. The terrorist was apprehended by the soldiers and brought into Israel for further investigation. During his apprehension, an improvised explosive device carried by the terrorists was located.
