From the founding of Hamas by Yassin in 1988 to Haniyeh in 2024, all those who have served as the organization's top leader have died in Israeli assassinations, without exception.
The second in command, the third in command, the fourth in command and so on were targeted and eliminated one after another, and it was almost impossible to count them.
Because of this, Hamas has formed a "decentralized, multi-channel backup" model. Their leadership is dispersed inside and outside Palestine, and power is not highly concentrated in a certain leader.
For example, Yahya Sinwar, who succeeded Haniyeh, was originally the actual leader of Hamas in Gaza City, in charge of the daily governance and military struggle in Gaza City.
Sinwar and his loyal disciple, Mohammad Dave, commander of the Qassam Brigades, were the specific planners of the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation in October last year.
