Efter Hamas-ledarens död: Vad händer nu?

Efter Hamas-ledarens död: Vad händer nu?

▸ Israel dödade en av Hamas högste ledare, Yahya Sinwar, i förra veckan. Nu pratas det om att händelsen kan bli början på slutet av kriget. Det är över ett år sedan Hamas överraskade Israel med terrorattacken som dödade över 1300 personer. Hamas har tagit flera som gisslan men Netanyahu har kritiserats för att inte göra tillräckligt för att få dem fria. Nu undrar många om dödandet av Sinwar kan ändra på premiärministerns inställning. Både till att få loss gisslan men också att få fart på förhandlingarna om vapenvila. Kan Sinwars död vara början på slutet av kriget? Har Hamas någon annan ledare som är redo att ta över och vad kommer Netanyahu göra framöver? Gäst: Wolfgang Hansson, Aftonbladets utrikespolitiska kommentator. Programledar och producent: Jenny Ågren. Klipp från: DW News, Sky News, CBS News.

Hamas nya ledare hålls hemlig – efter Sinwars död

Hamas nya ledare hålls hemlig – efter Sinwars död

Av säkerhetsskäl kommer Hamas sannolikt att hålla identiteten på sin nya ledare hemlig, säger en källa inom den terrorstämplade rörelsen till BBC. Planen är att välja en ny ledare i mars nästa år, och fram till dess kommer Hamas att styras av en kommitté med fem medlemmar, enligt kanalen. En av de fem, Khalil al-Hayya, har tillfälligt tagit på sig ansvaret för de flesta av rörelsens politiska och utrikesfrågor och anses därför vara den tillförordnade Hamasledaren, enligt den källa som BBC talat med. Förvånade att Israel lyckades döda Sinwar I fredags bekräftade Hamas att dess ledare Yahya Sinwar var död efter att israeliska myndigheter dagen innan uppgett att Sinwar dödats i en eldstrid av israeliska soldater i södra delen av Gaza. Hamaskällan säger till BBC att terrorgruppen blev förvånade över Sinwars död, eftersom de trodde att han befann sig på en säkrare plats. Förra veckan lade IDF ut en drönarvideo som uppges visa Sinwars dödsögonblick. På videon syns en nästintill livlös person sitta i en fåtölj ett söndersprängt hus. Personen försöker kasta en planka mot drönaren som filmar. Har hänt tidigare Hamas har även tidigare hållit sin ledares identitet hemlig. Detta skedde även efter mordet på Hamas grundare och ledare Ahmed Yassin och hans efterträdare Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi.

On Monday, Israel conducted dozens of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip, after Palestinian militants fired barrages of rockets at southern Israeli cities in the latest fighting.

Should Israel Ransom Hostages? (Updated)

When we first released an episode on captured soldiers, back in August 2023, we had no idea that we were mere months away from the worst hostage crisis Israel had ever experienced.  On October 7, 2023, Hamas murdered 1,200 people – mostly civilians – and dragged another 240 to Gaza, plunging Israel into a nightmare. Hamas did not discriminate. They took babies as young as 9 months, elderly people well into their 80s, and everyone in between. Some of those 240 hostages have been rescued or released. Some were murdered in captivity. Three were killed mistakenly by “friendly fire.” But as of December 2023, 129 remain in Gaza, their fates and welfare unknown. And the questions we raised back in August remain more relevant than ever.  ~~~~   Sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tO4xtCQdNDbcO3THe1elsiNrvREOuG6FjD3gcq5hDnA/edit?usp=sharing

This episode explores the complicated history of Israel and Palestine, chronicling the ancient history of the temples in Jerusalem, to the Crusades, to the settlement of the land by Arabs almost 1,000 years ago, and to the more recent wars of 1948, 1967, the Intifadas, and the state of the conflict in present day.
