IDF reveals there is no solid proof that Sinwar has been killed in an IDF airstrike.

When asked if Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar is still alive, IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari says, "I can neither confirm nor deny." In response to a query on Monday morning about Yahya Sinwar's status, IDF spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that Sinwar is still alive

The inquiry was posed during the brief Q&A period that followed Hagari's alert to the people of Lebanon. The questioner wanted to know if Sinwar had perished in a recent IDF airstrike.

Hagari emphasized, "I cannot confirm, and I cannot reject" the reports. "I am not aware that he has passed away." Israel is looking into the possibility that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas in Gaza, died as a result of an IDF airstrike on the Gaza Strip, according to a report from Kan News on Sunday night.

The report claims that no intelligence supports such a narrative, and there is a dispute among defense authorities as to whether the mastermind of October 7th was really eliminated or was simply cut off from his communications once more.
