The Palestinian militant group Hamas has named Khalil Al-Hayya as its overall leader, according to a statement from Hamas on Monday.
“The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) announces the election of brother mujahid Khalil Al-Hayya as head of the movement’s political bureau, succeeding the martyred leader Yahya Al-Sinwar,” Hamas said in a statement. Sinwar was killed by Israeli forces in October 2024 in Gaza.
