Sinwar is Hamas’s most senior leader and is believed to be the mastermind behind the U.S.-designated terrorist group’s devastating Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack. Hamas militants killed roughly 1,200 people in southern Israel and kidnapped about 250 others.

IDF confirmed that three terrorists were eliminated in its operations in Gaza. Sinwar was one of the chief architects of Hamas's attack on Israel on October 7 last year

Israel's military claimed the strike targeted a location where dozens of militants from Hamas and Islamic Jihad were gathered.

Four Israeli soldiers were killed and dozens were wounded in a Hezbollah drone attack on central Israel in the deadliest strike by the militant group since Israel invaded southern Lebanon two weeks ago.

Israel said an operation in Gaza may have killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, part of a renewed assault against the militant group after more than a year of war in the Palestinian territory.

The drone attack was one of the deadliest attacks by the Iran-backed militant group since Israel launched its ground invasion of Lebanon nearly two weeks ago.
