Two Israeli Occupation officials have confirmed that recent information suggests Hamas leader Yahya Al-Sinwar is in Gaza, specifically through tunnels near Khan Yunis, not in Rafah where the Israeli Occupation army is currently conducting operations.

The officials, speaking to the Hebrew newspaper "The Times of Israel," stated that the Hamas leader and mastermind of the October 7 attacks continues to remain hidden in Gaza.

Israeli Occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has emphasized the military operation in Rafah, stating that targeting Hamas leadership remains a key objective of the aggression.

The Hebrew newspaper reported that Israeli Occupation has made "eliminating Sinwar" a crucial element in its goal of dismantling Hamas.

White House Strategic Communications Coordinator John Kirby confirmed two days ago that the American administration is assisting Israeli Occupation in locating Yahya Sinwar and other Hamas leaders in Gaza.
