THIS is the deadly moment an Israeli tank blasted terrorist Yahya Sinwar’s bolthole before he was shot dead.

Footage released by the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) shows a tank firing at the home of the terrorist Hamas leader.

The terror kingpin and his two guards had been spotted by a patrol of Israeli troops in Tal al-Sultan, an area of Rafah.

The IDF also released three photographs of weapons found in Sinwar’s home, including three rifles and ammunition.

The shocking video captures Hamas leader Sinwar desperately trying to fend off a drone with a stick in a befittingly disgraceful conclusion for the mastermind of the October 7 incident.

Drone video released by Israeli forces shows the mini-camera bot sweep into a bombed-out building.

It comes across a dust-covered man with his face wrapped in a bandana – later revealed to be Sinwar.

He can be seen slumped in a dirty armchair with a badly injured hand.

In one of his feeble final acts, he hurls a stick at the drone – and misses.

This embarrassing defeat occurred on Wednesday, following nearly 400 days of being pursued by Israel for orchestrating the killing and abduction of over 1,200 civilians.

An autopsy findings reveal Sinwar was likely killed by a long-range gunshot wound to the head – executed with sniper-like precision.

His corpse was also riddled with shrapnel fragments after the house he was in was blasted by a tank.

Sinwar’s body has now been transferred to a secret location inside Israel, Hebrew news site Walla reports.

The focus has now shifted to Mohammed Sinwar, a lesser-known but potentially more dangerous figure who could step into his older brother’s shoes.

Mohammed Sinwar’s rise to power would bring a new level of threat, according to an Israeli official.

Yahya Sinwar, the sinister architect of the October 7 tragedy, was considered a more calculated leader in contrast to his sibling, who is infamous within Hamas for his extremist beliefs and ruthless tactics.

With his brother’s staunch support, Mohammed Sinwar has become the de facto second-in-command of Hamas’ leadership in Gaza following the deaths of top Hamas military commanders, such as Mohammed Deif and Marwan Issa.

Mohammed became a trust confidant of Yahya, being one of the few people who knew where the Hamas boss was hiding during the war.

Because of his family connections, he also had an easy time rising to the top of Hamas without facing any suspicion of treachery from other members of the terror group.

Unlike Yahya, who has made headlines for his terror activities over the years, 49-year-old Mohammed operates more in the shadows, but his influence is undeniable, the expert said.

Israeli security forces are concerned that Mohammed, known for his ruthlessness, would escalate the conflict even further.

Yakubovich warned: “If Mohammed Sinwar comes to power, I believe it will be very problematic.

“He is much more extreme, even within the ranks of Hamas.”

This sentiment echoes fears that Mohammed, who is described as far less pragmatic than his brother, could resort to even more violent and uncompromising tactics, putting civilians at even greater risk.

Mohammed’s reputation within Hamas is that of a man who exerts total control through fear and violence.
