“Today, Israel confirmed that Yahya Sinwar, the leader of Hamas, is dead, and justice has been served, and the United States, Israel and the entire world are better off as a result," Harris said.
“Sinwar was responsible for the killing of thousands of innocent people, including the victims of October 7 and hostages killed in Gaza. He had American blood on his hands. Today, I can only hope that the families of the victims of Hamas feel a sense and measure of relief.”
Biden released a lengthy statement, stressing the elimination of the terror mastermind opens a door for the release of the hostages and an end to the devastating war in Gaza.
