Israeli officials: Yahya Sinwar was eliminated! The IDF holds footage taken from a drone of Sinwar bleeding from his injury before he was taken out by a sniper. A video be published in which Sinwar is seen throwing stones at an IDF drone after being shot.
Military reporter Doron Kadosh describes the sequence of events leading to the assassination of Yahya Sinwar:
1. Yesterday at 10:00 a.m., a soldier from Battalion 450 spotted a suspicious figure entering and exiting a building in Tel Sultan, Rafah. The soldier alerted the Brigade commander (who was himself wounded in the battles on October 7), and the force began to move toward the target, suspecting the presence of terrorists.
2. Around 3:00 p.m., as tanks and infantry forces were deployed, a drone identified three figures moving from house to house. It became clear that these were likely terrorists, possibly part of Sinwar’s entourage, who were moving ahead of him to “clear the area.” A shot was fired at the terrorists, hitting them, and they began to scatter.
3. Sinwar’s squad split up, with Sinwar entering one building and part of his squad entering another. Sinwar moved to the second floor, and the tank force fired a shell into the building.
4. The platoon commander from Battalion 450 entered the building where Sinwar was believed to be. Two grenades were thrown at him and his soldiers, forcing them to withdraw and continue operating drones.
5. The force deployed another drone, which spotted a figure (later confirmed to be Sinwar). He was wounded in the hand and masked, sitting in a room. Sinwar attempted to throw a wooden stick at the IDF drone, at which point the force fired another tank shell.
6. The next morning, when the force re-entered to scan the area, they discovered several bodies. Only then did they realize that one of the bodies bore a resemblance to Yahya Sinwar.
Sinwar was on his last leg to cross into Egypt and disappear! He was about to abandon his people carrying loads of cash and fake passports while asking them to fight and die! The two terrorists who were killed next to Sinwar are Mahmoud Hamdan and Hani Zarov, senior members of the Rafah Brigade of Hamas. Sinwar’s personal bodyguard was also eliminated. No abductees were in the area. The body of the suspected terrorist, Yahya Sinwar, was transferred to Israel for a DNA test. A second DNA test finds a 99 percent match to Sinwar’s DNA. The miracle is that he was about to run away from Gaza! The IDF killed him just hours before that!
The IDF destroyed a terrorist headquarters of Hamas that was located in a school in the Jabalia camp in Gaza. The Arabs report about 20 terrorists killed and dozens wounded in the attack on the Abu Hussein school. Photos of a dead body that are circulating in some telegram channels suggest that Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, was killed last night.
Last night, the US military attacked five underground warehouses of the Houthis’ advanced military equipment in the provinces of Sana’a and Sa’ada in Yemen. For the first time since the beginning of the war, the US military used the B-2 heavy bombers and not with fighter planes.
The spokesman for the Houthis in a military statement: We ask the neighboring countries and all the countries of the world to stop the aggression of Israel and the USA and we are ready to agree to peace and a ceasefire.
