Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was killed by the IDF in the Gaza Strip, sources close to the matter confirmed to The Jerusalem Post on Thursday.

The IDF is now saying that they did indeed get Yahya Sinwar after launching a targeted strike on Hamas activity in a building in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar is, or was, not only the last remaining leader of Hamas, but the “brains” behind the attack by Hamas on Israel on October 7th. This is a breaking story and will be updated as new information comes in. This is big news, really big news.

“And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity.” Ecclesiastes 8:10 (KJB)

Iran must be looking at all this and thinking to themselves is it really worth it to maintain this perpetual animosity and hostility towards Israel and the Jews? The short answer is, no, it’s not. Hamas is all but liquidated now, Hezbollah is just about done, and Iran would fold like a house of cards in an actual war with Israel, and everyone know it including Russia who had this “word of warning” for the Jewish state today. “We have repeatedly warned and continue to warn, to caution Israel against even hypothetically considering the possibility of a strike on Iranian nuclear facilities and nuclear infrastructure,” Ryabkov was quoted by TASS as saying. Wars and rumours of wars have been determined. That’s the memo.

Officials to JPost: Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar killed by IDF in Gaza Strip

FROM THE JERUSALEM POST: The IDF and Shin Bet (ISA) put out a joint statement on the possible assassination earlier Thursday. “Initial report – During IDF operations in the Gaza Strip, three terrorists were eliminated. The IDF and Shin Bet are checking the possibility that one of the terrorists was Yahya Sinwar. At this stage, the identity of the terrorists cannot be confirmed,” the IDF said.

“In the building where the terrorists were eliminated, there were no signs of the presence of hostages in the area. The forces that are operating in the area are continuing to operate with the required caution.” Sky News Arabia published a report shortly after, quoting a security official as saying that his death is confirmed.

One of the terrorists targeted in the IDF strike in Gaza was Hamas’s Khan Yunis division commander, who Army Radio reported on Thursday has been in close proximity to Sinwar since the start of the war. According to the Army Radio report, Israel’s confirmation of the division commander’s death is a significant sign that Sinwar was among those killed in the IDF strike.

“As of now, one of the multiple necessary assessments has been completed for absolute confirmation. Dental images have been submitted to the police forensics lab, and DNA testing is currently in progress.”

The IDF also believes that Sinwar stayed in the tunnel with the six slain hostages, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Carmel Gat, Almog Sarusi, Alexander Lobanov, and Ori Danino, who were being held in Rafah. According to the IDF, after the hostages were executed, he started to move without other hostages as human shields.

Israel Police gave the following statement a few hours after the report: “In response to recent reports concerning the identification of Yahya Sinwar’s assassination, the Israel Police, IDF, and Shin Bet are actively working to establish a definitive identification.” READ MORE
