Hamas bekräftar att toppfigurerna dödats

Huthayfa Samir Abdallah al-Kahlout (Arabic: حذيفة سمير عبد الله الكحلوت; 11 February 1985 – 30 August 2025), known by the nom de guerre Abu Obaida (Arabic: أبو عبيدة, romanized: Abū ʿUbayda, lit. 'father of worshippers'; also spelled Ubaida, Ubayda, Ubaydah) was a Palestinian militant and spokesperson for the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, from 2007 until his death in 2025. He was described as "the central figure of al-Qassam's media campaign."

Mohammed Ibrahim Hassan al-Sinwar (Arabic: محمد إبراهيم حسن السنوار, romanized: Muḥammad Ibrāhīm Ḥasan as-Sinwār; 16 September 1975 – 13 May 2025) was a Palestinian politician and militant who became the third Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip, following the killing of his brother, Yahya Sinwar in October 2024. He also served as the seventh commander of the Al-Qassam Brigades since July 2024. He held both positions until he was killed by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in May 2025. Born in the Khan Yunis refugee camp, Sinwar spent several years in Israeli and Palestinian Authority jails in the 1990s and became the leader of Hamas's Khan Yunis Brigade in 2005. Israel attempted to assassinate him several times prior to killing him in May 2025.
