The PFLP-GC Headquarters Raid was an Israeli commando operation against the Lebanese headquarters of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (PFLP-GC) in Naameh, 10 km South of Beirut, launched on 9 December 1988. The two main objectives of the operation were the assassination of PFLP-GC's Secretary-General Ahmad Jibril, who was reported to be present at the base, and the destruction of the system of bunkers, caves, and tunnels, which made the base invulnerable to air attack. Israeli military analyst Ronen Bergman described the operation as an "embarrassing flop".

  • The PFLP-GC Headquarters Raid was an Israeli commando operation against the Lebanese headquarters of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – General Command (PFLP-GC) in Naameh, 10 km South of Beirut, launched on 9 December 1988. The operation was named Operation Blue and Brown (Hebrew: מבצע כחול וחום - Mivtza Kachol ve-Chum) and consisted of a night-time coastal landing, a difficult three kilometres march across very rough terrain to the heavily fortified Palestinian base, located near the coastal Lebanese town of Naameh (الناعمة an-Na'imah), eight kilometres south of Beirut. It was to be the deepest Israeli incursion since the beginning of the withdrawal from Lebanon in 1983. The two main objectives of the operation were the assassination of PFLP-GC's Secretary-General Ahmad Jibril, who was reported to be present at the base, and the destruction of the system of bunkers, caves, and tunnels, which made the base invulnerable to air attack. The operation failed, mainly due to inaccurate intelligence and several mistakes made by the Israeli commanders. The Israeli soldiers never managed to break into or destroy the main bunker where Jibril was thought to be hiding. The attack on the caves similarly stalled because of loss of element of surprise and subsequent stiff resistance. The IDF commander Lt. Col. Amir Mei-Tal was killed and three of his men were wounded. Israeli military analyst Ronen Bergman described the operation as an "embarrassing flop". (en)
  • Operacja Kachol we-Chum (hebr. מבצע כחול וחום, Miwca Kachol we-Chum) – izraelska operacja wojskowa przeprowadzona w nocy z 8 na 9 grudnia 1988 roku w Libanie. Jej celem był atak na siedzibę Ludowego Frontu Wyzwolenia Palestyny – Główne Dowództwo (LFWP–GD) oraz zabójstwo jego przywódcy i założyciela Ahmada Dżibrila. W operacji wzięły udział siły wojsk lądowych, sił powietrznych i marynarki wojennej. Operacja zakończyła się porażką sił izraelskich, które jeszcze przed atakiem straciły element zaskoczenia. Nie udało się zniszczyć sieci bunkrów oraz nie zdołano zabić Dżibrila, którego nie było w siedzibie podczas ataku. Ponadto zginął ppłk Amir Mej-Tal, dowódca 12 Batalionu, a czterech żołnierzy nie wróciło z operacji i trzeba było zorganizować dla nich akcję ratunkową. Operacja przyczyniła się do zakończenia kariery wojskowej gen. . (pl)
