Hamas chief Mohammed Sinwar has been killed, Israel's Netanyahu says

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that the de facto leader of Hamas, Mohammed Sinwar, has been killed. Netanyahu mentioned the killing in a speech to Israel's parliament as the U.S. seeks another temporary ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.

During his speech, Netanyahu listed the names of top Hamas leaders killed during the war and included Sinwar. "We have killed ten of thousands of terrorists. We killed (Mohammed) Deif, (Ismail) Haniyeh, Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Sinwar," he said.

Netanyahu did not elaborate, and Israel's military did not immediately issue any new statement on Sinwar's apparent death.
