Hizbul Mujahideen Named Abu Ubaida Chief Commander

Hizbul Mujahideen named Abu Ubaida chief commander after Saifullah was killed: Militancy in Kashmir.

Hizbul Mujahideen named Abu Ubaida terrorist as Chief of Commander in the Kashmir Valley after Saifullah Mir was killed. Musaib ul Islam has been made his deputy. However, the security agencies have not confirmed this.

These are the code names for both and the terrorist organization has been reluctant to reveal the real names to protect its commanders. It is believed that the infamous Zubair Ahmed Wani is Abu Ubaida and Farooq Ahmed is his deputy.

On Sunday, security forces killed Hizbul Mujahideen commander Saifullah Mir alias Ghazi Haider in Rangreth, Srinagar, in an encounter.

The commanders of Hizbul are being killed one by one and Hizbul is almost wiped out in South Kashmir. Earlier in May, its top commander Riyaz Naiku was killed by security forces. Saifullah could not get out even six months after Naiku.

The Hizbul cadre has been frustrated by the constant killing of its commanders. Sources said that because of this Hizbul is looking for a face that can make the organization stand again.

Due to the strictness of security forces, the path of the terrorist organizations is getting difficult.

This issue was discussed in the Hizbul Mujahideen Command Council meeting in Muzaffarabad, the capital of slave Kashmir.

In the presence of Sallahuddin, Abu Ubaida and Mussaib-ul-Islam were reportedly declared operational chiefs and deputy chief commanders.

The Hizbul Mujahideen often addresses them by code names to protect their commanders. Security agencies have not shared any information about this.

Who is Zubair Wani

Zubair, who hails from Dehuna village in Anantnag district, became a terrorist in April 2018.

Meanwhile, he ran away from home, and then on the internet media declared him to be a terrorist. He has been associated with the Jamaat.

Zubair played an important role in preventing cadre migration in the Islamic State and Gajwat-ul-Hind.

It was he who killed the self-styled commander of the Islamic State, Adil Das, in June 2019 on the pretext of meeting in Bijbehada.
