Sinwar in ‘Fiercest Battle’ – Israeli Officer

This is what Rozan Qabas Aal Salem, a Yemeni Jew said about the fierce battle that killed Yahiya Sinwar, head of the Hamas Political Bureau in Rafah.

The translation is from Arabic: The Israeli commander of the battalion that engaged with Yahya Al Sinwar (#يحيى_السنوار) says that the battalion fought the fiercest battle in its history with Sinwar for three days while he was moving between a number of buildings.

During these days he engaged in a clash with Al-Yassin shells, sniper weapons and Kalashnikovs.

After he was killed and they entered the area, they were surprised to find that only Sinwar and few fighters there and were shocked by their resistance.
