Israel's Foreign Minister, Israel Katz, has confirmed the death of Yahya Sinwar, a key figure in the October 7th attacks on Israel that killed over 1,200 people. Sinwar, believed to be the mastermind behind the massacre, had evaded Israeli efforts to capture or kill him for months.
Reports of his killing had been circulating for several hours and photos of a body resembling Sinwar being shared on social media. Israeli troops reportedly engaged the terrorists in a building and only noticed the resemblance to the Hamas leader after his killing. Formal identification and DNA testing were subsequently completed.
