Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, following the military’s confirmation of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar’s death on Thursday (October 17), stated that the war in Gaza could end if Hamas laid down their arms and released all hostages. Sinwar, believed to have orchestrated the October 7, 2023, attacks that ignited the Gaza conflict, was killed by Israeli forces. Netanyahu described his death, along with other leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah, as a major victory and a potential opportunity for peace in the Middle East.

00:00Today, the mastermind of this day of sheer evil is no more.
00:05Yigal Sinwar is dead.
00:07He was killed in Rafah by the brave soldiers of the Israel Defense Forces.
00:12While this is not the end of the war in Gaza, it's the beginning of the end.
00:17To the people of Gaza, I have a simple message.
00:21This war can end tomorrow.
00:23It can end if Hamas lays down its arms and returns our hostages.
00:28Hamas is holding 101 hostages in Gaza who are citizens of 23 countries.
00:34Citizens of Israel, but citizens of many other countries.
00:37Israel is committed to doing everything in our power to bring all of them home.
00:42And Israel will guarantee the safety of all those who return our hostages.
00:47But to those who would harm our hostages, I have another message.
00:51Israel will hunt you down and bring you to justice.
