Not eliminated, but much reduced. This sort of thing used to happen on a regular basis.
Gathering a few scattered elements to hit an isolated, lightly-defended target with an indirect fire attack and disappear would not be that difficult, as long as your commo and ability to move undetected were still good.
More important for the propaganda value than the importance of the target.
You don't see them ground assaulting Colombian military bases anymore like they used to.
Punks.
