Israel’s Premier Confirms Death of Hamas Leader, Urges Peace (Video)
By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent Worthy News
JERUSALEM (Worthy News) – Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed Thursday that “the mastermind” of what he called “the bloodiest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust” is dead. Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was killed during a surprise encounter with the Israeli military in Gaza, Israel said.
“One year ago, Yahya Sinwar, the terrorist chief of Hamas, launched the October 7th massacre against Israel. It was the bloodiest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust”, also known as the Shoah, Netanyahu recalled.
“It was the worst attack on the Jewish state since the founding of Israel,” Netanyahu stressed. “Sinswar’s terrorists murdered in cold blood 1,200 people. That’s elderly people, Holocaust survivors, children. They brutally raped women. They beheaded men. They burned babies alive,” he said, confirming extensive video footage seen by journalists.
“And they took 251 women, men, and children hostage to the dungeons of Gaza,” he added. “Today, the mastermind of this day of sheer evil is no more. Yahya Sinwar is dead. He was killed in Rafah by the brave soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).”
Netanyahu commented in a moving video when his Jewish nation faced seven fronts.
In earlier comments, Netanyahu listed the battlegrounds as Iran, Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, Shia militants in Iraq, militant groups in Syria, as well as Palestinian fighters in the West Bank, also known as Judaea and Samaria.
BEGINNING OF END?
On Thursday, he suggested that the assassination of Sinwar could bring an end to the armed conflict in Gaza, which was triggered by the October 7 Hamas attack.
“While this is not the end of the war in Gaza, it’s the beginning of the end,” Netanyahu said. “To the people of Gaza, I have a simple message: ‘This war can end tomorrow. It can end if Hamas lays down its arms and returns our hostages.’”
He said that Hamas is holding 101 hostages in Gaza, who are citizens of 23 countries, including Israel. “Israel is committed to doing everything in our power to bring all of them home.”
However, he opened the door towards a ceasefire deal, saying: “Israel will guarantee the safety of all those who return our hostages.”
But those “who harm our hostages,” he warned: “Israel will hunt you down and bring you to justice.”
Despite all tensions, he also expressed “a message of hope to the peoples of the region” who he believes have been held hostage by what he views as “Iran-backed terrorists” of Hamas, Hezbollah, and other groups.
‘AXIS OF TERROR’
However, “the axis of terror that was built by Iran is collapsing before our eyes. [Hezbollah leader] Nasrallah is gone. His deputy Mohsen is gone. [Hamas political leader] Haniyeh is gone. [Hamas commander] Deif is gone. Sinwar is gone,” he noticed, referring to Israeli strikes.
The Israeli leader also had a warning to Iran after approving a list of targets to attack in response to Iran’s recent aerial assaults against Israel, despite Tehran’s warnings, it will strike back.
“The reign of terror that the Iranian regime has imposed on its own people and the peoples of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen – this too will come to an end,” he said without elaborating.
However, he stressed, “All those who seek a future of prosperity and peace in the Middle East should unite to build a better future.”
Netanyahu explained that he still believes, “Together, we can push back the forces of darkness and create a future of light and hope for all of us.”
