Yahya Sinwar killed: Kamala Harris reacts to death of Hamas leader, 'opportunity to end Gaza war…'

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday (October 17) called Israel's killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar a step of progress towards eliminating the threat Hamas poses to Israel, after Israel confirmed it had killed the militant group's leader. "Justice has been served," Harris told reporters in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. "Sinwar was responsible for the killing of thousands of innocent people, including the victims of October 7 and hostages killed in Gaza." "Today I can only hope that the families of the victims of Hamas feel a sense and measure of relief" Harris added.
