Israel’s Netanyahu says ‘it appears’ ****** leader Mohammed Sinwar was killed

Israel has likely killed ****** leader Mohammed Sinwar, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a press conference on Wednesday.

⁠”We eliminated tens of thousands of terrorists,” Netanyahu said, adding of ****** targets, “We eliminated the leaders of the murderers Deif, Haniyeh, Yahya Sinwar and it appears we also eliminated Mohammed Sinwar.”

Netanyahu spoke of the ongoing military operation in Gaza, saying the strip will be under Israel’s control at the end of the war.

“Our forces are seizing more and more territory in Gaza. At the end of the move, all areas of the Strip will be under Israeli security control,” he said.

“I am ready to end the war on clear terms that will ensure Israel’s security — all the hostages returned home, ****** lays down its weapons, its leadership is overthrown, Gaza is completely demilitarized and the Trump plan is implemented,” Netanyahu said.

“Anyone who calls on us to stop the war before these goals are achieved is calling on us to leave ****** in power,” he added.
