STORYLINE:
Protesters in Jordan marched in downtown Amman after Friday noon prayers in support of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, who the Israeli military said it killed during fighting in Gaza.
Demonstrators held Sinwar’s photos and chanted anti-Israel and pro-Hamas leader slogans.
Protesters called upon Jordan’s government to support the Palestinian resistance and to annul the peace treaty with Israel.
Troops appeared to have run across Sinwar in a battle Wednesday, only to discover afterwards that a body in the rubble was the man Israel has hunted for more than a year.
Authorities conducted DNA tests on a body to determine if it was him.
Sinwar was one of the chief architects of Hamas’ attack on Israel last year that sparked the war in Gaza.
Israel’s military said Friday that its forces killed two militants who crossed into south Israel from neighboring Jordan.
The militants entered Israeli territory south of the Dead Sea, the military said.
Such infiltrations into Israeli territory are relatively rare, especially as Israel has ramped up border security since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, when militants from Gaza stormed southern Israel and killed around 1,200 people.
