Top Hamas leader makes first public appearance in Gaza since ceasefire with Israel

Yehiyeh Sinwar, the top Hamas leader in Gaza, made his first public appearance on Saturday. He was seen at the home of a Hamas commander killed in the 11-day war between Israel and the Palestinian militant outfit.

The top Hamas leader in Gaza, Yehiyeh Sinwar, made his first public appearance since the militant group's war with Israel erupted earlier this month. Israel had bombed the homes of senior Hamas figures during 11 days of fighting, as part of its attack on the group's military infrastructure. The home of Sinwar was also attacked. Sinwar was seen on Saturday as he paid his respects at a house of mourning for a Hamas commander killed in the war.
