Hamas picks Khalil Haya as new leader
The election of Hamas Movement's Khalil Haya as the head of the political bureau, succeeding Yehya Sinwar, came after the latter's martyrdom in October 2024. Haya is one of the movement's prominent leaders, having taken over the Gaza Strip leadership following Sinwar's death. Born in 1960, Haya holds a doctorate in "The Prophetic Sunnah and Hadith Sciences." Previously, he served as deputy to the former leader and is considered one of the movement’s main pillars. His family and supporters have faced numerous martyrdoms during the ongoing Israeli escalation against Gaza since the outbreak of war in October 2023, which has resulted in over 73,000 martyrs and 173,000 wounded. His selection occurs within the context of the movement's escalation and leadership in confronting the occupation, amidst continued military operations and Israel’s expanding control over areas in Gaza.
