Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar said in a weekend interview that he expected Israeli politicians to campaign using Gaza's "blood," according to Middle East Eye. Sinwar dismissed the possibility of political change resulting from Israel's upcoming election, suggesting that regardless of which party prevails, the conflict would remain central to campaigning.
The comments reflect Hamas's view that the Gaza war has become a fixture of Israeli electoral politics rather than a catalyst for policy shifts toward Palestinians.
