France freezes all assets belonging to the Hamas terror group’s top leader in Gaza, effective for the next six months.
Yahya Sinwar is considered the mastermind of the October 7 Hamas terror onslaught on Israel.
A decision published in the Official Journal of the French Republic says that “funds and economic resources owned, held or controlled” by Sinwar are being frozen. The total value of Sinwar’s assets in France is not provided.
