Many details about Sinwar&#39;s death are still unknown, but something is known. They accidentally killed himThe Israeli military (IDF) says a unit from the 828th Bislamah Brigade was patrolling the Tal al-Sultan area near Rafah on Wednesday.Three militants were identified and killed in a clash with Israeli soldiers. At first, there was nothing to indicate the particular importance of this conflict, so the soldiers did not return to the scene until Thursday morning.And then, when examining the bodies, it was discovered that one of them bore a striking resemblance to the Hamas leader.However, the body remained in place due to the suspicion of planted mines, so part of the finger was sent to Israel for testing. His body was eventually recovered and transported to Israel later that day, after the area was secured.
