Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has been martyred while fighting the invading Israeli army in Gaza, a senior leader of the Palestinian movement confirmed on Friday.
Khalil al-Hayya, chief of Hamas’ Gaza branch, said during a televised address.
“Sinwar ascended [to heaven] advancing and not retreating, engaging in the frontlines, moving between combat positions,” Hayya said.
Hayya, who is based in Qatar, mourned the “martyrdom” of Sinwar and said his death would boost the group’s determination to fight Israel.
“The death of our leader Sinwar and those [killed] before him will only increase the strength and resolve of our group,” he added.
The Israeli military said on Thursday confirmed it has martyred Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in Gaza.
Earlier in August, Hamas named Sinwar, one of the architects of the October 7 terror attack on Israel, as its new leader after Ismail Haniyeh’s assassination.
The overall Palestinian death toll since the beginning of Israel’s war on Gaza has reached at least 43,165 with more than 99,153 wounded. Thousands more remain trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings.
