According to reports from “Israeli” forensic doctors, Sinwar had not eaten for 72 hours before his death on Oct. 16 in Rafah while clashing with “Israeli” forces.
Chen Kugel, director of “Israel’s” national forensic institute, disclosed that one of Sinwar’s fingers was amputated to obtain a DNA sample for verification, as Sinwar had previously been imprisoned and had a medical record.
Kugel said that Sinwar survived for several hours before succumbing to a bullet wound that caused severe brain damage.
After the autopsy, Sinwar’s body was reportedly moved to an undisclosed location.
