Update: He's definitely dead. According to the NYT:
The Israeli military confirmed that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas, was killed on Wednesday. His body was definitively identified by the Israeli authorities, the military said.
Hopefully now a better future for Palestinians and Israelis is ahead.
Israel isn't just going to stop their genocide. There's no future for Palestinians while Israel is allowed to murder and rape unimpeded. These monsters have been shooting goddamn children in the head. They do not deserve any future.
Israeli army says
Downvote this propaganda.
Realistically, there are only two parties that can report this, Hamas/ Iran and Israel.
So, who do you believe in to get the news about the current events related to this war?
Realistically, Israel could permit third party journalists and investigators back into the conflict zone.
Letting anyone inside a war zone is a very bad idea. This is why war zones called war zones. Anyone inside a war zone is in an official life danger.
Very true, I'm certain those who go into war zones are aware of the dangers posed to them. Keeping conflict journalists out despite their knowledge of and willingness to brave those dangers is suspect.
And it totally has nothing to do with the huge # of third party journalists that have been killed by the IDF already despite incredibly clear press markings. It's almost like the IDF wants the ability to control the narrative or something...
You act like war reporting doesn't have a rich history. This isn't a new concept.
Only one county in the past ~50 years or so has become known for targeting clearly-delineated journalists in war zones.
Well maybe two since the US did it at least once in Afghanistan. But once isn't a pattern.
Why would they announce this before they were sure?
The dentals match.
They compared it to the xrays they had of when he was treated in an Israeli prison.
But I guess they want to be 100% sure with the DNA test.
Ah, that's good to hear. Odd that the article didn't mention it...

The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
