Killing Yahya Sinwar is Israel’s biggest victory so far in the war against Hamas in Gaza.
His death is a serious blow for Hamas, the organisation he turned into a fighting force that inflicted the biggest defeat on the state of Israel in its history.
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s prime minister, praised the soldiers and made clear that however big a victory, it was not the end of the war.
The remaining hostages are not free and Hamas is fighting and sometimes killing Israeli troops.
A year of war has killed at least 42,000 Palestinians and left much of Gaza in ruins
