Israel said, "Yahya Sinwar's wife was caught sneaking to the tunnels the night before the October 7 attack," claiming she was carrying a Hermes Birkin bag worth $32,000 (Rs 26.88 lakh).
"While Gazans endured hardship under Hamas, Sinwar and his family were shamelessly living in luxury, indulging while sending others to die," Israel said.
Israel shared a screengrab from the video, where Sinwar's wife holds a bag. In the hazy picture, the design on the bag 'appears to be similar' to the Hermes Birkin 40 Black Togo Gold Hardware edition. The Palestinian militant group is yet to contest Israel's claim.
Drone footage from earlier this week showed Sinwar critically wounded in his last moments, throwing some sticks at the drone. The autopsy found that Sinwar was killed by a gunshot to the head, and also found one of his fingers was cut off.
