A senior Israeli official tells Hebrew media that the security establishment’s current assessment is that there is a high likelihood that the terrorist killed by the IDF is Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
The IDF says moments ago that it is assessing whether one of three terrorists killed recently by its forces in Gaza was Sinwar, adding that there were no hostages found in the building where the trio were killed.
