“Yahya Sinwar was the main person responsible for the terrorist attacks and barbaric acts of October 7th. Today, I think with emotion of the victims, including 48 of our compatriots, and their loved ones. France demands the release of all hostages still held by Hamas,” Macron wrote on X.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed on Thursday that Sinwar had been eliminated in an operation in the southern Gaza Strip
