Israel Killed Sinwar Through Accident

Hamas announced today that its leader Yahya Sinwar was killed by Israeli forces. Sinwar, who has been described as the man whom Israel fears, was killed in what appears to have been an accidental encounter. Rather than being the result of a meticulously planned assassination, Sinwar’s martyrdom came after he directly engaged with Israeli troops after he found them, according to Israeli Walla.

On the day of the incident, Sinwar appeared in plain view, attacking Israeli soldiers with gunfire and grenades. He managed to wound several troops before retreating into a nearby building. From there, the Hamas leader continued to launch makeshift weapons, including rocks and sticks, as well as grenades, at the soldiers stationed at a distance. The Israeli soldiers, who were not aware that they were fighting their most wanted man, shelled the building.

This unexpected and fierce engagement is a sharp contrast to Israel’s earlier intelligence efforts, which had previously claimed that it pinpointed Sinwar’s whereabouts but refrained from action due to ‘concerns over the safety of Israeli prisoners’.

Reports from The Jewish Chronicle in August 2023 alleged that Israeli intelligence had multiple chances to kill Sinwar after locating his hiding tunnels in Gaza. However, Israel did not kill Sinwar claiming that he was using Israeli prisoners as human shields.

Israeli Admits to Destroying 96,000 Gaza Homes

The Israeli occupation army admitted to destroying about 96,000 Palestinian homes in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the aggression on the enclave last 7 October. They claimed these homes were “booby-trapped.”

The Israeli Army Radio stated in a report, Wednesday, that “96,000 homes were destroyed in Gaza since the beginning of the war on Gaza, including about 14,000 houses in the city of Rafah in the southern tip Gaza Strip”. The radio claimed these were destroyed on the grounds that they were “booby-trapped buildings,” it said.

“The building that was seized and exploded in Rafah, Tuesday, killing four soldiers and wounding five others, is one of thousands of buildings that Hamas has booby-trapped in Rafah,” it claimed.

“What was known as the threat of booby-trapped buildings, which led to the killing of many soldiers in Gaza since the beginning of the ground maneuver on 27 October, 2023, became known in Rafah as the threat of booby-trapped neighborhoods.”

“There is not a single booby-trapped building in Rafah, but rather groups of 30-40 buildings, and all that is required is a small camera installed in one of them to film the entry of our forces, and to know when the activation mechanism is activated remotely,” the occupation army radio claimed.

According to statistics from the Gaza Government Media Iffice in Gaza on 15 September, the Israeli occupation army destroyed 350,000 homes completely or partially during the war on Gaza, as well as 825 mosques completely or partially and 3 churches.

The Israeli occupation forces, supported by the United States and Europe, continue to commit the crime of genocide in the Gaza Strip, for the 348th consecutive day, by launching dozens of airstrikes and artillery shelling, while committing massacres against civilians, amid a catastrophic humanitarian situation resulting from the siege and the displacement of more than 95 percent of the population according to Quds Press.
