Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the killing of Yahya Sinwar showed why Israel "insisted on not ending the war", and added the fighting would continue until the remaining hostages were brought home.
Sinwar, who had been top of Israel’s most-wanted list, is a deeply significant moment in the war in Gaza.
Israel accused Sinwar of having masterminded the unprecedented 7 October attacks, that killed around 1,200 people in Israel and saw 251 taken hostage last year.
US officials have signalled a desire for Sinwar’s death to act as an opportunity to renew efforts to agree a ceasefire deal and secure the release of the remaining hostages.
