**Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu announces the elimination of a key Hamas leader amid ongoing conflict.**
In a recent announcement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared the military "elimination" of Mohammed Sinwar, the prominent Gaza leader of Hamas and brother to the organization's former head, Yahya Sinwar. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) claims that Sinwar was targeted in a substantial airstrike that struck a courtyard and peripheral areas of the European hospital located in Khan Younis on May 13. This bombardment allegedly aimed to dismantle Hamas's subterranean network.
The Hamas-controlled health ministry in Gaza has reported that the airstrike resulted in 28 fatalities, although Hamas has not provided any confirmation of Sinwar's death. Previously, Yahya Sinwar, who orchestrated the deadly October 7, 2023 attack on Israel, was killed in Israeli military operations last fall.
The conflict's recent history has been marred by violence, sparked by a Hamas raid that resulted in the deaths of approximately 1,200 Israelis and over 251 individuals taken captive, triggering a broad Israeli military campaign in Gaza. According to reports from Gaza's health ministry, the ongoing hostilities have claimed the lives of at least 54,084 people in the region since the conflict intensified. Investigations into Israel's airstrike on the European hospital continue amid the battling narratives from both sides in this protracted war.
