An inside look at Singapore's Naval Diving Unit's Hell Week



Five days without sleep. Non-stop physical exercise and mental harassment.

That is what 70-odd cold, wet, and sandy trainees of the Republic of Singapore Navy’s 40th Combat Diver Course endured during their Team Building Week – also known as Hell Week.

It is a rite of passage they must complete in order to earn their place as elite frogmen in the Naval Diving Unit.



Sunny skies and clear blue waters. These were what the boys enjoyed as they learned to scuba dive in the 10-metre-deep pool at the Sembawang Camp.

The Straits Times Alphonsus Chern and Caroline Chia got an inside look at how they swim, dive and train to become some of the fittest men in the Singapore Armed Forces.

Hamas Terror Cell Received Advanced Training in Malaysia

JERUSALEM – IDF forces have captured several hundred Hamas terrorists over the course of Operation Protective Edge. Many of them have been turned over for further questioning and investigation.

The questioning of one of the terrorists revealed another of Hamas’ plans to kill and abduct Israeli soldiers and civilians. A Shabak investigation exposed that Hamas terrorists received training in Malaysia and Gaza to infiltrate Israel by air to kidnap and murder Israelis.



In the early hours of July 21st, IDF forces captured a Hamas cell commander in Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza. When questioned by the Shabak, also known as the Shin Bet Security Service, the cell commander revealed that he had been sent by Hamas leadership to Malaysia for paragliding training. The plan was to parachute into Israel to kidnap and murder civilians.

The prisoner also revealed Hamas plans to ambush Israeli soldiers with anti-tank missiles and even pointed to a terrorist sniper nest on a map of Gaza. The location was the tenth floor of the Palestinian Red Crescent building in Khan Yunis.



The investigation of this terrorist commander reveals the process of the making of a terrorist. After being recruited into Hamas’ military wing in 2007, the terrorist underwent regular combat training. Every five months he would attend refresher courses which involved training with Kalashnikov automatic rifles, Soviet-made PKC machine guns and locally manufactured hand grenades.

In 2010, the terrorist was enlisted into a special force sent to Malaysia for parachute training, in preparation for a cross-border kidnapping attack on Israel. He and ten other terrorists from across Gaza spent a week receiving training in Malaysia.

After returning to Gaza, the cell was given additional weapons training. They were warned to maintain secrecy, and not to reveal details of their Malaysian training to anyone.

In 2014, four years after being sent to Malaysia, the Hamas commando squad was summoned for more parachute training. This time the training took place inside the Gaza Strip. According to the prisoner, the squad was not told about where the kidnapping attack would take place.

The terrorist told investigators about a Hamas training camp that took place in June of this year. Exercises involved training with handguns, Kalashnikovs, M-16s, RPGs, machine guns and demolitions training. Terrorists who attended the camp were trained in various methods of kidnapping soldiers and how to operate inside Hamas’ extensive tunnel network. The terrorist was meant to attend such a course after Ramadan.

Ultimately, he was arrested by IDF soldiers operating in Gaza during Operation Protective Edge.

A Shabak spokesman said that the details of their investigation reveals the extent of the efforts and resources that Hamas invests in bolstering its military capabilities, including the building and training of a standing commando army to attack and kidnap Israeli soldiers and civilians.

“Hamas goes to incredible lengths to carry out attacks against Israel. That is why the IDF will not rest in its mission to dismantle the organization’s terrorist infrastructure and keep the people of Israel safe” the spokesman concluded.

The Philippine military said Wednesday (Aug 6) one of Southeast Asia's top Islamic militants was alive, more than two years after jubilantly declaring he had been killed in a US-backed airstrike.

MANILA: The Philippine military said Wednesday (Aug 6) one of Southeast Asia's top Islamic militants was alive, more than two years after jubilantly declaring he had been killed in a US-backed airstrike.

Zulkifli bin Abdul Hir, alias Marwan, a Malaysian bomb maker with a $5-million US-government bounty on his head, is roaming the southern Philippines, senior military officials said. "He is alive and we continue to monitor him," Lieutenant Colonel Ramon Zagala told AFP.



Philippine military chiefs said in February 2012 that Zulkifli was among 15 members of the Al-Qaeda-linked Abu Sayyaf and Jemaah Islamiyah organisations killed in an airstrike on the southern island of Jolo. Zulkifli is regarded as an expert bomb maker and a senior leader of Jemaah Islamiyah who first went into hiding in the southern Philippines in 2003. In 2007, the US government offered a US$5-million reward for his capture, making him one of the United States' most-wanted men.

Another top Jemaah Islamiyah member, Singaporean Mohammad Ali, alias Muawiyah, was also declared killed in the airstrike, along with a Filipino leader of the Abu Sayyaf. "This is a big victory. There were three senior leaders (killed). This will have a very big impact on the capability of the terrorists," then-regional military commander Major General Noel Coballes said at the time.

Shortly afterwards, Malaysia expressed doubts about the purported killings but the Philippines' then military spokesman insisted all three were dead. "Yes, its an A-1 (information). We have something but we cannot divulge all the other information because its an operational (secret)," Arnulfo Burgos, Zagala's predecessor, said at the time. <<<-- operational secret kepala hotak kau pinoy busuk

However, Zagala insisted on Wednesday that the Philippine military had never said Zulkifli had definitely been killed. "There were reports that said he was dead but it was never validated ... we never confirmed he was dead," he told AFP. Zagala declined to answer further questions about the case, such as whether the other two top militants were also alive.

Military intelligence chief Major General Eduardo Ano said there were "consistent reports" Zulkifli was in the strife-torn Cotabato area of the main southern island of Mindanao. He said Zulkifli was believed to be in contact there with the Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters (BIFF), a small band of Islamic militants fighting for an independent Muslim homeland in the south. He said there were 10 to 12 foreign Jemaah Islamiyah members in the southern Philippines, and that Zulkifli was "the most prominent" of them.



The Abu Sayyaf is blamed for the worst terrorist attacks in the Philippines, including the bombing of a ferry in Manila that killed more than 100 people. They are also accused of carrying out dozens of kidnappings in the remote, Muslim-populated south.

Jemaah Islamiyah wants to set up an Islamic state across Southeast Asia. It is accused of carrying out many deadly attacks in the region, including the bombing of tourist spots on the Indonesian island of Bali in 2002 that killed 202 people, among them 88 Australians.

At the time of the purported airstrike, a rotating force of about 600 US Special Forces was stationed in the southern Philippines to help train local troops how to combat Islamic militants. The Philippine military said then that it launched the airstrike with the help of US intelligence.

failed intelligence

can transport MBT?

hmm, when was the latest jungle war? i dont think it is right taking viet n malaya as a example... that happened quite long ago

you're right to say mbt or even tanks would not be very effective in jungle warfare but i doubt these days people would fight in the jungle.. or at least not in big battles

pinoy like to draw a lot of art work...

true also.. but if enemy takes major cities but dont pursue to jungle... wat can msia do? just wondering...

why sitting duck?

hmm... doubt nsa hv many field operatives.. most death are during counter intelligence offensive or in field station

no no, dont misunderstand me.. am not disputing... of course there're deaths... in this line especially when u r working for pub enemy no.1

also sometimes info on mass media can be let out on purpose..

depending what's the intention of the offensive... if it is occupy n reform then it is a prob... if seek, destroy n scorch earth like israel.. then it doesnt really matter

their planes are donated... will nvr be allowed to be used against msia... neway, that's f-16...am sure our sukhois can take them down easily...
