Nebuchadnezzar, asserting Babylonian claims to all the area previously dominated by the Neo-Assyrians in the southern half of western Asia, has eliminated many kingdoms in the west, including, in 587, the Hebrew southern kingdom of Judah, whose leaders and prominent citizens he has deported to Babylonia.
