In a tense context of violence and conflicts in the Middle East, the announcement of the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar at the hands of Israeli forces has provoked a strong reaction from Hezbollah. The Shiite military movement strongly condemned this act, expressing its unwavering support for the Palestinian cause. For Hezbollah, Yahya Sinwar embodies the symbol of resistance and his martyrdom will only strengthen the determination of the Palestinian people.
In the Gaza Strip, the news of Sinwar’s passing was greeted with fierce determination. Many hailed his sacrifice as a martyr, stressing that the loss of their leaders cannot shake their will to resist. A displaced resident of Jabaliya, Saleh Shonnar, expressed this sentiment by affirming that the Palestinian people are alive and resilient, even in the face of the longest wars.
The reactions were not long in coming, with demonstrations multiplying in the region, particularly in Jordan. In Amman, protests erupted after Friday prayers, with demonstrators carrying pictures of Sinwar and chanting slogans against Israel and in support of Hamas. Protesters called on the Jordanian government to support the Palestinian resistance and demanded the annulment of the peace treaty with Israel. The protests reflect widespread anger over Sinwar’s assassination, which the Israeli state has presented as a major blow to Hamas.
The death of Yahya Sinwar raises many questions about the escalation of violence in the Middle East and fuels already palpable tensions in the region. As the various parties clash, the Palestinian people continue to demonstrate fierce resistance and unwavering determination in the face of occupation and oppression. These tragic events are a reminder of the urgent need to find peaceful solutions to end this cycle of violence and suffering that has persisted for too long.
