26 OCT 2023 · - Who are The Leaders of Hamas.
- Ismail Haniyeh:
- Ismail Haniyeh was born on January 29, 1963, in the Al-Shati refugee camp in the Gaza Strip.
- He is a senior Hamas leader and has held various positions within the organization.
- Haniyeh served as the Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority from 2006 to 2014, after Hamas won the legislative elections in 2006. However, this led to a division between Hamas, which controlled the Gaza Strip, and Fatah, which controlled the West Bank.
- He is known for his leadership during the Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip and his efforts to maintain and strengthen Hamas's control in Gaza.
- As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Ismail Haniyeh held the position of Chairman of the Political Bureau of Hamas, making him one of the most prominent figures in the organization.
- Yahya Sinwar:
- Yahya Sinwar was born on February 13, 1962, in the Khan Younis refugee camp in the Gaza Strip.
- He is a key Hamas figure who spent many years in Israeli prisons for his involvement in the organization.
- Sinwar was released from prison as part of a prisoner exchange in 2011 and subsequently became a prominent leader within Hamas.
- He is known for his role in leading the military wing of Hamas and is considered a hardliner within the organization.
- In 2017, Yahya Sinwar was elected as the Prime Minister of the Gaza Strip, succeeding Ismail Haniyeh in this role.
