Former Israeli intelligence officer Avi Melamed discusses the Israeli operation in Gaza City to find the “mastermind” behind Hamas' attack against Israel on October 7.

Mr Melamed could not confirm whether Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar would be killed or taken alive once Israeli forces breach his bunker in Gaza City.

“He was imprisoned in Israel for a lifetime, he is a very dangerous person, he was personally involved in killing other … Palestinians,” he told Sky News Australia.

“He suspected them to be collaborators, he is a very dangerous and violent person."

In a televised statement, Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said the IDF’s top target was “isolated” and “hiding” without “contact with his associates”.
