The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Thursday revealed a disturbing letter written by Ibrahim, the 10-year-old son of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, expressing a desire to shoot Jews. The letter, discovered by Israeli forces in Gaza in 2024, was shared on the IDF's X account.
In the letter, addressed to his father, Ibrahim wrote, "Dad, I miss you so much! I want to hug you and see you win." He continued, "I want to declare 'Allahu Akbar' and hold a Kalashnikov and shoot Jews." The boy also described spending his time making toy guns, tanks, and Kalashnikovs out of paper and cardboard, rather than engaging in typical children's games.
The letter included drawings of weapons, tanks near the Gaza border fence, and missiles being launched toward Israel. Ibrahim also expressed hope for the war's end and his father's well-being, asking his father to pray for him. The IDF stated that the letter and drawings illustrate how Sinwar's ideology of hatred and violence impacts the younger generation in Gaza.
The IDF's revelation coincides with the second anniversary of the elimination of Yahya Sinwar, though the article text itself does not specify the date of this anniversary, only that it is being marked.
