Hamas Confirms Deaths of Top Officials After Months of Silence

Hamas confirmed the deaths of several high-ranking officials, including the spokesman for its armed wing, Abu Ubaida, and its chief in the Gaza Strip, Muhammad Sinwar, after months of silence. The confirmation came from the Kassam Brigades, the organization's military wing, and also concerns Muhammad Sabana, Hakam al-Issi, and Raed Saad. The Israeli army had announced the deaths of Sinwar and Abu Ubaida earlier this year. These confirmations come after the deaths of other Hamas leaders in the past two years, including Yahya Sinwar and Muhammad Deif.
