Most of the Architects of October 7 Attacks Have Been Killed, Says Netanyahu

Israel says it has killed several Hamas leaders and commanders as Netanyahu says the mission to eliminate the Oct. 7 planners is nearly complete.

  • On Sunday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel has nearly finished eliminating all orchestrators of the October 7 attacks, which left 1,221 people dead in Israel.
  • Israel has previously targeted senior Hamas commanders, including Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Deif, who were widely regarded as masterminds behind the initial October 7 assault.
  • The military announced on Friday that Ezzedine Al-Haddad, commander of the Hamas armed wing, was killed in an airstrike; Netanyahu described Haddad as a "despicable terrorist" while discussing the mission.
  • Israeli forces currently control 60 percent of Gaza's territory; under the US-brokered ceasefire terms in effect since October 10, forces were to withdraw to the "Yellow Line," leaving them in control of more than 50 percent of the Palestinian territory.
  • Netanyahu reiterated that the mission is to ensure Gaza never again poses a threat to Israel; according to the health ministry, the military campaign has killed more than 72,700 people in Gaza.
