Gallant says Hamas chief Sinwar will soon ‘meet the barrels of our guns’

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant issues a new threat against Yahya Sinwar, saying the Hamas leader will soon “meet the barrels of our guns.”

“The IDF and defense establishment’s activity continues. In the north of the Gaza Strip, the operation is gradually completing the goals we set, the dismantling of the Hamas battalions and the elimination of its underground capabilities,” Gallant says following an assessment with the IDF chief, head of the Shin Bet, Mossad officials and other defense officials.

“We are also operating in the Khan Younis area and the south of the Gaza Strip, and we will operate in other places in the future,” he says.

“One thing is clear, Yahya Sinwar now hears the IDF [tank treads] above him, the Air Force bombs and the IDF’s operations. He will also meet the barrels of our guns soon,” Gallant adds.

Sinwar is believed by the IDF to be hiding underground in southern Gaza.
