Depends upon who you mean by we and whether disguising soldiers as civilians counts as "working from within a civilian population."

The team attacking the target was mostly based on Sayeret Matkal commandos, led by then unit-commander Ehud Barak. (Barak later became Prime Minister). The team approached the buildings disguised as civilians and couples (Barak was disguised as a brunette).

From the Jewish virtual library: "When they approached their target they got out of the cars and began walking like lovers, as they had planned."
