Tracking down Sinwar has proven difficult for the IDF, as the terror leader has reportedly avoided electronic communication for months.
Dr. Yuval Bitton saved Yahya Sinwar's life in 2004. Sinwar promised to repay the debt upon his release in 2011, only to plot the murder of Bitton's nephew and countless other Israelis 19 years later.
Israel wanted to shake up the situation by making Gaza Chief Yahya Sinwar and Deif nervous that if the IDF could get to Issa, he could also get to them.

Born in the Khan Yunis refugee camp, Sinwar, 61, was made Hamas' leader in Gaza in 2017. Since Oct. 7, Israel has considered him and other leaders to be "living on borrowed time."
