Timeline

2018

On May 16, 2018, in an unexpected announcement on Al Jazeera, Sinwar stated that Hamas would pursue "peaceful, popular resistance" opening the possibility that Hamas, which is considered a terrorist organisation by many countries, may play a role in negotiations with Israel. A week earlier he had encouraged Gazans to breach the Israeli siege, saying “We would rather die as martyrs than die out of oppression and humiliation”, and adding, “We are ready to die, and tens of thousands will die with us.”

2017

In February 2017 Sinwar was elected Hamas leader in the Gaza Strip, taking over from Ismail Haniyeh. Sinwar rejects any reconciliation with Israel. He has called on militants to capture more Israeli soldiers.

More recently he has silenced hard-line voices in Gaza overruling the use of tunnels that Muhammad Deif wanted to use to sneak fighters into Israel before they were shut down by new classified Israeli technology in 2017.

2015

In September 2015, Sinwar was designated a terrorist by the United States government, and Hamas and the al-Qassam Brigades have also been designated terrorist organisations by the United States and other countries and organisations.

1988

In 1988, he masterminded the abduction and killing of two Israeli soldiers, was arrested, convicted of murder, and sentenced in 1989 to four life sentences. He tried to escape several times but was always caught. Sinwar served 22 years of his sentence before being released in 2011 and repatriated to Gaza as part of the prisoner exchange for Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.

1982

Sinwar was first arrested in 1982 for subversive activities and he served several months in the Far'a prison where he met other Palestinian activists, including Salah Shehade, and dedicated himself to the Palestinian cause. Arrested again in 1985, upon his release he together with Rawhi Mushtaha co-founded the Munazzamat al Jihad w’al-Dawa (Majd) security organisation, which worked to, inter alia, identify Israeli spies in the Palestinian movement, and which in 1987 became the "police" of Hamas.

1962

Yahya Sinwar (Yehiya Sinwar Arabic: يحيى السنوار ‎) (born 1962) is a Palestinian military leader. He is also the current leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip, having taken over from Ismail Haniyeh in February 2017. He was one of the co-founders of the security apparatus of Hamas. He is the second most powerful figure within Hamas.
