The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is reportedly closing in on Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar in the Gaza Strip, as he runs out of places to hide and as other senior members of the terrorist organization are eliminated.
The Jerusalem Post reported Friday:
Sinwar is almost alone at the top of Hamas. His close friends in the senior military ranks of the organization, as well as the senior officials, have been eliminated or have disappeared: Mohammad Deif, Rafa’a Salama, Ahmed Ghandour, Raad Saad, and Ayman Nofal.
…
The fact that Sinwar’s entire operational hub has disappeared makes it difficult for him, according to the IDF’s estimates, to move to hiding places, especially above ground.
…
According to the source, Sinwar’s movement area, like that of other senior officials in the organization, is getting smaller and smaller.
Sinwar is now the leader of Hamas after the killing of Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, Iran last week.

My question is, each time an Hamas leader is “neutralized” another one comes to take his place. Will this be a net positive for the Israelis or, as in the bombing campaign in Vietnam, will it fail to demoralize the population and make them even more determined to fight?
My question is “how many of the hostages are still alive”?
get the f***er.
This is Israel’s best chance to wipe Hamas off the map for good.....and t looks like they might.
They need to keep pushing
Hopefully
Good..Sinwar is a rat, with rats, they can run but eventually you find them, trap them and kill them
Getting Haniyeh was the tip of the iceberg, off Sinwar and Hamas is pretty much gone
If it wasn’t for the biden’s puppeteer, the tunnels would have been flooded long ago.
We probably will never know.
Many of the hostages that are still alive have probably been moved out of Gaza via the tunnels leading into Egypt.
Israel now controls the Gaza -Egypt border so it will be very difficult for Hamas to get them back to Gaza for release.
It would be very problematic for Hamas and Egypt to admit that the Israeli hostages were trafficked through Egypt and have been held in Egypt or other Arab countries.
This is probably one of the reasons Egypt and the Biden Administration totally freaked out when Israel took control of the Philadelphia Corridor and shut down the cross border tunnels.
Absolutely a positive. The giant turd was an architect of the Oct. 7 massacres. It’s like getting UBL.

Oh the haters of Israel will REALLY want a “cease-fire” now.......
They gotta keep their terrorists going.
5 is what I was thinking if for whatever reason their closing in on him is not true.
5) It could be a deliberate leak to try and spook Sinwar into leaving his hidey hole so the Israelis can get him out in the open and eliminate him
The population that became demoralized about Viet Nam was the American people due to fake news press reports. The Vietnamese knew the only place they could win was in the press and at the negotiating table.
A major contributor to North Vietnam’s willingness to continue was because they had people like Hanoi Jane and John Kerry cheering them on. They were ready to quit on more than one occasion.
All they have to do is find the largest concentration of women and children. He’ll be right in the middle of them.
Hope he dies tired.
Israel will have to patrol Gaza — and I mean patrol — for decades to come. In the Middle East there were no, repeat no, nations willing to accept Holy Land Muslims. That was true of Lebanon’s camps, the Islamic occupied part of the Holy Land and Gaza. Don’t believe me? Investigate and find out how many have removed to Egypt in the last ten years.
And the answer is——NONE!
