Hamas confirmed the death of its Gaza military chief, Mohammad Sinwar, who was reportedly killed by Israel in a strike in May. Hamas described him and other leaders as "martyrs" without providing details on his death. Sinwar was the younger brother of Yahya Sinwar, who was also killed by Israel. His death may lead to his associate, Izz al-Din Haddad, taking charge of Hamas' armed wing across Gaza.
