Merge with/into List of Israeli assassinations or List of targeted killings by Israel. This new article is the same scope and duplicative. Open to a discussion about whether List of targeted killings by Israel (to match the main article Targeted killing by Israel) or List of Israeli assassinations is the better merge target. My preference is for the former. Longhornsg ( talk) 17:28, 14 September 2023 (UTC)

"Targeted killings and assassinations are closely related, but not identical, phenomena". The assassination of militant leaders might often fall under the definition of targeted killings, but there are also entries in these lists that it would be inappropriate to shoehorn into a 'targeted killing' definition. This includes, for example, the killing of Kamal Nasser, a politician and poet, as well as the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientists, i.e.: individuals who represent a somewhat hypothetical and very much indirect threat versus individuals who might be reasonably be construed as combatants.
