The U.S. has charged Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar and several other prominent figures in the Palestinian group in connection with its deadly attack in Israel on Oct. 7 last year, the BBC writes.
The justice department said it was indicting six Hamas members with seven charges, including the murder of U.S. citizens, conspiracy to finance terrorism and use of weapons of mass destruction.
Three of those named in the indictment are dead and Sinwar is believed to be hiding in tunnels somewhere under Gaza.
