The Hamas-Israel war that has been going on for almost 10 months is now at a new turning point. Israel killed the supreme leader of the terrorist group Hamas two days ago. The matter is also gaining momentum because the place of murder was Iran. This is the same country which itself kept promoting Hamas. Now Lebanon and almost the entire Middle East including Iran are angry at Israel. But the first need is for a leader in Hamas who can fill the void.
This is why Hania was asked
Although many leaders of Hamas have been killed in Gaza Strip, but the killing of Ismail Haniya is a big loss for the group. In comparison to other dreaded leaders, he was a moderate face who communicated directly with the world. Hania was considered an expert in diplomacy, who knew when to pull strings and when to loosen them. After his recent assassination in Tehran, there is discussion as to who will now take command of Hamas.
One of them is Yahya Sinwar
This is the leader who helped lay the foundation of Hamas in 1980. Let us tell you that at this time anger against Israel was increasing in Palestine and Hamas was established to give it a face. Sinwar was arrested several times by the Israeli army. He even spent more than 2 decades in an Israeli jail. During the prisoner exchange in 2011, Hamas demanded the return of Sinwar, which Israel was forced to accept.
Reward of 4 lakh dollars to the person giving information about Sinwar
As of now, Israeli officials believe that Sinwar is also one of the masterminds of the attack that took place on October 7, 2023. Apart from them, Mohammad Daif, who is the commander of the military wing in Gaza, had planned this attack in October, in which thousands of innocent Israelis were killed and more than 200 were taken hostage. Immediately after this, the Israeli army threw leaflets in Gaza, in which there was a promise of giving 4 lakh dollars to anyone providing information about Sinwar. Even after this, the people suffering from misery in Gaza did not give any information about their leader.
Allegedly, Sinwar has been hiding in the dense tunnel network of Gaza since then and is controlling the activities of Hamas from within.
Sinwar’s brutality can be gauged from the fact that during his Israeli captivity, he had confessed that he used to kill every Palestinian whom he suspected of having a soft corner for Israel. This murder was also not done by shooting, but by cutting the throat with a razor.
After this the name of Khalid Meshaal is coming.
According to a New York Times report, he is also a strong face among Hamas fighters, who is being seen as a replacement for the dead leader.
Meshaal, born in the West Bank, is the political leader of Hamas, on whom Israel has always been angry. He was even given slow poison by an Israeli agent in Jordan, due to which he went into a coma. Later, under a deal, Israel saved his life by providing an antidote.
Started suicide bombing
Khaled Meshaal, who joined the Muslim Brotherhood at the age of 15, spent most of his time outside Palestine in the Middle East. Meshaal was also considered a master of suicide bombing. This person started suicide bombing after the formation of Hamas in the nineties. There was a close contest between Meshan and Haniya until just before he was elected supreme leader.
After the murder of Hania, there is also a speculation that Sinwar might have been complicit in this death in Tehran. In fact, since Haniya was the diplomatic face of Hamas, Sinwar had to obey him even after being the head of ground operations in Gaza.
