Netanyahu: Israel has ‘settled its account’ with Sinwar, but ‘war has not yet ended’

World

JERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday that Israel had "settled its account" with "the person who carried out the worst massacre in the history of our people since the Holocaust."

Netanyahu said the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was an "important moment in the war" to bring home the hostages being held in Gaza. He also said anyone who surrendered weapons and assisted with the return of the hostages would be allowed to leave Gaza safely.

Still, he added, "our war has not yet ended."
