Purported drone footage shows Yahya Sinwar’s final moments before he was killed by Israeli forces

Israel announced that its armed forces killed Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar after a “lengthy hunt.” Sinwar was a key figure in the conflict between Israel and Hamas, with his death coming just 10 days after the deadliest fighting erupted in October 2023. Israel has been targeting Hamas and Hezbollah leaders since then. Sinwar was found with weapons and money, and his death marks a significant development in the ongoing war. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it the “beginning of the end” of the conflict. Hamas has not confirmed Sinwar’s death.
