Israel-Gaza war | Israel hunts for ‘mastermind’ Mohammed Deif, “face of evil” Yehya Sinwar of Hamas

The surprise barbaric attack by Hamas on Israel, which has claimed over 1400 lives, shocked the world on October 7. Vowing vengeance, Israel launched Operation Iron Swords to wipe off “Hamas from the face of the earth”. From October 7, Isreal Defence Forces have pounded Hamas targets in Gaza Strip, reducing buildings to rubble. Over six top Hamas commanders have been neutralized by Israeli Air Force’s strikes in Gaza. Now Israeli military is on a hunt for ‘the mastermind’ behind the October 07 massacre, Mohammad Deif. Taking to platform X, IDF said that Hamas terrorist Mohammed Deif’s name will live in infamy. Hamas terrorist Mohammed Deif is a designated terrorist by the United States Department of State. Under Mohammed Deif’s command, the Hamas Al-Qassam Brigades train and arm terrorists, according to Israel. He has orchestrated countless attacks over recent decades, from suicide bombings, to devastating murders. Israel authorities are also on a hunt for ‘Yahya Sinwar’, a top Hamas leader who was also involved in Oct 07 brutal assault. The source close to Hamas told Reuters that decision to prepare the attack was taken jointly by Deif along with Yehya Sinwar. "There are two brains, but there is one mastermind," the source said Reuters, adding that only a few Hamas leaders had information. Israeli authorities called him the “face of evil”, who was involved in the attacks that left 1,400 Israelis dead.
