Palestinian resistance group says that by assassinating “the flexible” Haniyeh, Israel chose war, not negotiations. And now Netanyahu will have to deal with Yahya Sinwar and “the military leadership”.

“In practice, nothing has changed with the arrival of Sinwar, except that there is now no direct contact with the mediators” outside Gaza, says Berhum. Hamas said as much after his elevation. “They killed Haniyeh, the flexible person who was open to solutions. Now they have to deal with Sinwar and the military leadership,”
Sinwar, also known as Abu Ibrahim, was imprisoned in Israel for 23 years, where he learnt Hebrew and studied Israeli history and politics. He also knows Gaza’s geography very well.
