U.S. General: Hamas Leader Holed Up Deep Below Gaza, Surrounded by Israeli Hostages Used as Human Shields

(Fox News) Benjamin Weinthal - Yahya Sinwar, the terrorist mastermind behind Hamas' massacre of nearly 1,200 people, including over 30 Americans, is believed to be using hostages as human shields to hold off Israeli soldiers seeking to capture him in a tunnel deep below Gaza, Gen. Jack Keane, former U.S. army vice chief of staff, told Sky News Australia on Thursday. "My sources tell me that Sinwar, who is the number one leader in Gaza of the Hamas organization, has 15-20 hostages protecting him and his family," Keane said. "That's why they have these hostages, to guarantee their survival. Israel is absolutely right in putting military pressure on them to force the release of the hostages."
