JAKARTA - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that Hamas leader in Gaza, Mohammad Sinwar, one of the most wanted and younger brother of the leader of the deceased group, Yahya Sinwar, had been removed.

As reported by Reuters on Wednesday, May 28, Mohammad Sinwar was appointed to the top ranks of the Palestinian militant group last year after Israel killed his brother Yahya in fighting during the ongoing war in Gaza.

Yahya Sinwar masterminded an October 2023 attack on Israel that sparked war, and was later appointed general leader of the group after Israel killed its predecessor Ismail Haniyeh in Iran.
