Several countries in the Western world have reacted to the killing of Yahya Sinwar, head of the Palestinian independence organization Hamas. These countries consider it a great success for Israel. In addition, the countries hope to strengthen the possibility of a ceasefire in the Middle East.

In a televised address, Netanyahu said, "Light is now prevailing over darkness in this region." Sinwar's death is an important landmark in the downfall of this group (Hamas).

US President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris made a statement on the news of the killing of Hamas leader. Biden said, today is a good day for Israel, the United States and the world. The death of Yahya Sinwar will end Hamas rule in Gaza. A political solution will be created. This will give Israel and the Palestinians a better future.

The White House said Biden congratulated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on the success of the mission to kill Sinwar. They talked about how the hostages can be brought back to the country using the matter. Apart from this, they also talked about ending the war by ensuring Israel's security.

In response to this incident, Kamala Harris said at an election rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, "Justice has been established."

He also said that Sinwar is responsible for the killing of thousands of innocent people, including the victims of the Hamas attack on Israel on October 7 last year and the hostages who were killed in Gaza. His death finally marked the end of the war in Gaza. I can only hope that the families who suffered because of Hamas can now breathe a sigh of relief.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Yahya Sinwar was responsible for the worst day in Jewish history after the death of the Hamas leader. The UK will not mourn his death.

He added that the release of hostages, a cease-fire and an increase in humanitarian aid have been long overdue. Now we can move towards a long-term and sustainable peace in the Middle East.

French President Emmanuel Macron reacted to the death of Yahya Sinwar. He described this event as a great success for the Israeli army.

Macron said the opportunity should be used to secure the release of the hostages and end the war. He also thinks that it is necessary to stop Israel's military operations in the Middle East.

German Foreign Minister Annalena Bierbock called Sinwar 'a ruthless murderer and terrorist' in a statement. He said Hamas should immediately release all hostages it held during the October 7 attacks on Israel. They (Hamas) should disarm now.

"If he (Sinwar) is killed, I personally will not miss him," NATO chief Mark Rutte told reporters at a press conference in Brussels.
