This has been confirmed by the country’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu himself. He addressed the nation giving information about the death of the most dreaded leader of Hamas. He said that we have eliminated evil, but the work is not complete yet. We did exactly what we had promised that we would kill the leader of Hamas. This is an important moment for us during the fight.
In his address, the Israeli PM termed the release of hostages as his highest commitment. He said that we will continue to work with all our strength till his return home. Apart from this, the PM also gave a message to the people of Gaza.
Netanyahu said that Sinwar has ruined your life. He told you that he was a lion, but in reality he was hiding in a den and when he got scared and ran away from us, he was killed by the soldiers. The Jewish leader termed Sinwar’s death as the fall of Hamas’ bad rule and called it an important milestone for Israel.
