Chilling Final Moments: Yahya Sinwar Hunted, Cornered & Eliminated | Israel vs Hamas

Yahya Sinwar, the chief architect of the Oct. 7 attack on Israel that trigged the Gaza war, eliminated. But how the Israeli Soldiers carried out the operation in Southern Gaza and killed 'butcher of Khan Younis'. A soldier from the 450th Battalion noticed a suspicious figure entering and exiting a building in Rafah’s Tel Sultan neighborhood. The battalion commander ordered forces to open fire on the building around 10:00 am. A drone spotted 3 figures leaving the building at 3:00 p.m., two clearing the way for the third. Sinwar, the third figure, went into a separate building after the IDF opened fire, injuring the terrorists. Tanks and infantry platoons attacked both buildings where the terrorists hid including Sinwar. Sinwar moved to the second floor and threw two grenades, one of which exploded. A drone later found Sinwar, who was injured and had his face covered, throwing a wooden stick at the drone. A tank shell was fired at Sinwar after his attempt to hit the drone. Troops searched the building the following morning and recognised Yahya Sinwar’s body. The Shin Bet took DNA and fingerprints to verify Sinwar's identity at Israeli Forensic Lab. The Bislamach Brigade, replacing Givati Brigade, led the operation to kill Sinwar. Sinwar’s body was found with cash, Mentos, and ID cards among other materials.
