International Desk: Israel has been carrying out genocide in the Gaza Strip of only 141 square miles for almost a year. Netanyahu's forces have already killed more than 41,000 Palestinians. However, despite so much killing and destruction, their target is another person. The Israeli army is looking for Yahya Sinwar, the head of the Palestinian resistance group Hamas, who has been killed in this long-running war. The United States, the main ally, is working with them naturally. Even if he is alive or dead, Israeli intelligence has not come to any conclusion yet.

But for a long time, Yahya Sinwar was hidden from the public eye. When Ismail Haniya lost his life in an Israeli attack a couple of months ago, he took the helm of Hamas. Even after taking such a big responsibility, he did not come publicly. In such a situation, various Israeli media are claiming that Yahya Sinwar may have been killed by an Israeli air strike. His death is also being investigated by Israeli intelligence agencies. However, they still do not have any strong evidence to confirm his death.

According to The Express Tribune, Yahya Sinwar has been hidden from the public eye for a long time. This is not normal at all. Because of this, more speculations have sprouted around his death.

Media outlets such as Israeli state broadcasters Kan, Haaretz, Maariv and Walla News claim that Yahya Sinwar was killed during an airstrike in Gaza—a possibility the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Military Intelligence Directorate is investigating. However, Israel's internal intelligence agency Shin Bet believes Yahya Sinwar is still alive. But he is silent.

On October 7 last year, Hamas fighters entered southern Israel and launched an unprecedented attack. 1200 Israelis were killed in their attack. More than 250 Israelis were captured by Hamas fighters in Gaza. And Yahya Sinwar is considered as the mastermind of this attack. He has been hiding in underground tunnels under Gaza since the attack. He reappeared only when exchanging messages on important matters such as ceasefire or prisoner exchange negotiations.
