Israel has released what it said was footage of Hamas leader Yayha Sinwar seeking safety with this family in the tunnel complex of Gaza on the eve of last year’s October 7 terrorist attack on Israel.

IDF spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said, “Even on the eve before the brutal massacre, Sinwar was busy with his survival and the survival of his family.”

The footage of the architect of the October 7 atrocities, who was killed last week after a clash with Israel soldiers in Gaza, was seized several months ago.

“Sinwar hid most of the time underground in the area between Khan Younis and Rafah, and came out only to escape, accompanied by bodyguards and with documents, certificates, weapons and money in his possession,” Hagari was quoted as saying by the Times of Israel.
