On the second Hebrew anniversary of the October 7th massacre, the IDF has released a never-before-seen photo showing senior commanders standing over the body of Hamas terror chief Yahya Sinwar — the mastermind of the October 7th atrocities — who was eliminated in southern Gaza’s Rafah exactly one year ago.
The photo, taken on October 17, 2024, shows then–Southern Command head Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman, former Operations Directorate chief Maj. Gen. Oded Basiuk, and Gaza Division commander Brig. Gen. Barak Hiram near Sinwar’s body following the operation that brought his reign of terror to an end.
The IDF published the image as part of a collection of wartime photographs captured by combat photographers, which will be displayed beginning Sunday at the Yitzhak Rabin Center in Tel Aviv.
