The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) have released a video of the last moments before the martyrdom of Yahya Sinwar-head of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, who took charge of the organization after the assassination of its leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran.
Yesterday, the Israeli army claimed that they had targeted a building in Gaza where Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar was present and were checking if he is dead or not.
Later, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also confirmed the death of Yahya Sinwar and called it the beginning of the end of the ceasefire in Gaza, but no official statement has been issued by Hamas yet.
American broadcasting agency CNN has reported that the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) released an edited video of the time of the attack on Yahya Sinwar.
In a video released by the IDF, a man with one arm cut off can be seen sitting on a sofa in a damaged building, and a drone camera moves towards him, whereas the voice behind him says it is Yahya Sinwar.
Despite being injured, Yahya attacks the drone with a piece of wood as the drone approaches him.
X users praised the Hamas leader for being valiant even in his last moments.
A Bangladeshi user praised him for being a hero.
Another user posted a picture of the Hamas leader for being brave and commented,”Even in his final movements, Israelis could not budge him from his chair.
Another called him “iconic.”
Umar bin Zahir posted the picture of Yahya and commented that “he continued to fight with honour.”
A user by the name of America the Ghetto posted that in the attack Yahy didn’t die, everyone around him did.
American politician Sam Parker commented, “Sinwar gave the last full measure of devotion.”
Though Israel released the footage to try and trample Hamas’ morale, the footage had the opposite effect. Twitter flooded with praise for Sinwar after footage showed him defiantly throwing a stick at an Israeli drone filming him even though one of his arms was cut off by then.
