Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar’s days “are numbered,” a senior Biden administration official said Thursday, vowing to make sure justice is served.
“I think it’s safe to say his days are numbered… He has American blood on his hands; 38 Americans were killed on October 7, and he is still holding a number of American hostages,” the official told reporters during a call to discuss National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan’s trip to Israel and Palestine.
“So, it doesn’t matter how long it takes, but justice will be served,” said the official who was speaking on condition of anonymity.
Sinwar and a handful of other Hamas officials planned the October 7 attack on Israel, killing over 1,000 people and taking hundreds more hostage. It was one of the deadliest attacks Israel has ever faced.
Five individuals linked to two French associations have been charged in France on suspicion of channeling funds to Hamas under the guise of humanitarian aid, the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT) said Saturday.
War simplifies and clarifies everything. When one’s own life or the very survival of family, friends and country is at stake, one learns to think quick and to act straight, to sweep away routine, clichés, and dead paradigms - and stick to fundamentals.
Hamas is cementing its hold over Gaza by placing loyalists in key government roles, collecting taxes and paying salaries, according to an Israeli military assessment seen by Reuters and sources in the Palestinian enclave.
