Following the elimination of Hamas's Gaza chief, Muhammad Sinwar, the Islamist group will have to choose a new leader to head the organization in the territory. However, Israel's eliminations of Hamas leaders will make it difficult to find a suitable successor.

The confirmation of Mr Sinwar’s death changes little in and of itself. Hamas has already appointed a replacement and it has weathered the killings of many of its bosses.

Sinwar's body was initially recovered alongside the bodies of 10 other terrorists in a complex underneath the European Hospital in Khan Yunis.
