Accounts on the Instagram platform belonging to the owners of the apartment in which the head of the Political Bureau of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), Yahya Al-Sinwar, was martyred, published pictures and blogs that expressed the family’s pride in this great honor.
Activists said that the apartment located on Ibn Sina Street in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood, west of the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, belongs to the Abu Taha family, which was forced to vacate it as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression for the second year in a row.

An account on the Instagram platform called “Gaza Sweet,” whose owner appears to be from the Abu Taha family, confirmed that the apartment in which Al-Sinwar was martyred belongs to him.
The account published two pictures of the apartment in its normal appearance before and after the war, clearly showing the sofa on which Sinwar sat when the Israeli drone photographed him. The account wrote, “Our house has increased honor and pride in Abu Ibrahim, the persistent leader,” adding, “We thank God that we have been given this honor.”
The account said, “In my name and in the name of Abu Taha’s family, we are all proud that Abu Ibrahim obtained martyrdom in our home. Here I have achieved it, coming and not retreating.”
He wrote on another photo with an arrow showing the sofa: “The purest and most honorable sofa and chair in the whole world is in our house. May God have mercy on you and make you dwell in His spacious paradise, Father Ibrahim.”
For his part, Muhammad Sami Abu Taha said in a post on Instagram that Al-Sanwar “barricaded himself in a house belonging to our family, “Abu Taha,” and rose there as a Mujahid and defender until his last breath.”
Abu Taha said in his blog post, “How proud we are of him and of everyone who walked this path in redemption for the truth,” adding, “Because of this path, our souls, our homes, and everything we own are trivialized.”
Yesterday, Friday, Khalil Al-Hayya, member of the Hamas political bureau, officially announced the martyrdom of Al-Sinwar after a clash with the occupation army in the Tal Al-Sultan neighborhood in the city of Rafah.
