Lt Col Itamar Eitam, involved in the operation, described his encounter with Sinwar's body. Eitam recounted finding Sinwar in a dilapidated chair, describing him as “a small, ugly, and broken figure.” He reflected on the moments spent alone with Sinwar, looking into his eyes as he lay on a shattered couch.
