Israel has admitted to the killing of the new chief of the terrorist group Hamas. Will this put the ceasefire agreement at risk as tensions escalate?
CEASEFIRE AGREEMENT: Israel And Hamas Agree To Terms
The ceasefire agreement, in which both sides had agreed to terms, was announced a few days ago. But now, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has officially confirmed the killing of Hamas leader Muhammad Sinwar during an airstrike conducted earlier this month in the southern Gaza City of Khan Younis.
“We eliminated the Head of Hamas, again. He happens to be a Sinwar too,” the IDF wrote on X. According to an IDF statement released on Saturday, the strike was carried out on May 13th in coordination with the security service Shin Bet. The army said the target was an underground command center operated by Hamas beneath the European Hospital.
Sinwar took over Hamas after the IDF killed his brother, Yahya Sinwar, and senior commander Muhammad Deif in October.

Also killed in the operation were Muhammad Shabana, commander of Hamas’s Rafah Brigade, and Mehdi Kuwara, head of the organization’s Khan Younis battalion. The IDF identified both as key operatives in the October 7th attack and the taking of Israeli hostages, according to a report by RT. This could derail any peace prospects.
Hamas has neither confirmed nor denied Sinwar’s death. The militant group had previously denied accusations that it was using civilian infrastructure as cover. Gazan health officials said at the time that 28 people were killed in the May 13 strike. –RT
The question now is how this is going to affect the ceasefire agreement. According to the IDF, Sinwar was killed before the recent ceasefire announcement was made, declaring that both Hamas and Israel have agreed to terms. But will that change with this announcement? Is this war destined to go on forever? Or will common ground be found?
