The Israeli army has released new footage of the killed Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar, which was apparently recorded before the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. Sinwar was the mastermind of the attack that killed over 1,200 Israeli citizens and led to a full-blown war between Israel and Hamas.

The video, dated October 6, shows Sinwar walking back and forth in an underground tunnel with his wife and children, carrying bags of supplies to the bunker that the IDF later discovered.

The IDF Spokesperson, Nadav Shoshani, who shared the footage, wrote, “Sinwar hours before the October 7 massacre: taking down his TV into his tunnel, hiding underneath his civilians, and preparing to watch his terrorists murder, kindap and rape”.

Sinwar, who was leading Hamas after Ismail Haniyeh in July, was killed in an encounter with Israeli soldiers in Rafah on October 17.
