Israel has vowed to "eliminate" Yahya Sinwar, the newly appointed Hamas chief, as the Gaza conflict intensifies. Sinwar, who replaced Ismael Haniyeh, has been linked to the October 7 attack, the deadliest in Israel's history. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Israel Katz have pledged strong action against Sinwar, citing his militant stance. The conflict has already claimed thousands of lives. Hezbollah, backed by Iran, has promised retaliation for recent Israeli strikes, exacerbating regional tensions. International leaders urge both sides to avoid further escalation amid a worsening humanitarian crisis.
