Footage shows Sinwar’s wife holding $32,000 Hermès bag, IDF claims

IDF spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari on Saturday said of the footage: "For hours, they go up and down, stocking up on food, a television, and other products for a long stay. He [Sinwar] only cared for his personal survival."

According to the post, Sinwar's wife was carrying a Hermès Birkin 40 Black Togo with Gold Hardware.

It has "tonal stitching, two straps with front toggle closure, clochette with lock and two keys and double rolled handles.

"The interior is lined in black chevre with one zip pocket with an Hermès engraved zipper pull and an open pocket on the opposite side," according to website Madison Avenue Couture, which sells it for the $32,000 price tag the IDF noted.

Birkin bags are notoriously difficult to buy, requiring customers to repeatedly demonstrate loyalty to Hermes, and many are only available in person. The IDF did not produce evidence to verify the claims other than the CCTV screenshot.
