The Palestinian militant group Hamas confirmed on Saturday the death of its Gaza military chief, Mohammad Sinwar, a few months after Israel said it killed him in a strike in May.
Hamas did not provide details on Sinwar's death but published pictures of him along with other group leaders, describing them as "martyrs".
The Hamas chief was the target of an IDF strike on the European Hospital in Khan Yunis in May. According to the Hamas-run Ministry of Health in Gaza, at least 16 were killed and 70 were wounded in the attack.
Three days before Israel's security establishment confirmed definitively that Sinwar was killed in the IDF strike, on the 600th day of the war in Gaza, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the assassination while speaking in the Knesset.
