October 17 Israel declared about the murder of Synvar in the Gaza Strip, the next day it is Confirmed And representatives of Hamas. Sinvar is considered the organizer of the attack on Israel on October 7, 2023, during which the militants killed about 1,200 Israelis and foreigners and took more than 250 to the gas sector as hostages. Although the Israeli Defense Army has been constantly looking for the leader of Hamas, he died as a result random meeting With a patrol. National Center for Forensic Medicine Israel reportedthat the cause of Synevar’s death was a shot in the head, the approximate time of death was the evening of October 16.

The video in which Sryad, along with relatives, is hidden in tunnels under the gas sector for the first time Published in verified accounts and on the official site IDF on the night of October 19 to 20. In a four-minute video, a spokeswoman for the Israeli army, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari reports that the leader with the participation of leader Hamas was shot a few hours before last year’s attack on Israel-it was then, according to the representative of the IDF, Sinvar gave the order to start the attack. In the video, the organizer of that attack and his relatives carry pillows, blankets, food and TV. Further in the video they show a room in which, supposedly, Sinvar and his family lived, and Hagari says that throughout the war, which Sinvar began, he continued to hide behind the Palestinians “and lived in luxurious conditions, which did not have access to the residents of Gaza, since Sryvar always put himself in the priority of himself, his money and not the population of Gaza”. The speaker of the Israeli army does not directly call the Birkin bag or other objects of luxury.

October 19 at 23:34 Moscow time, the representative of the IDF for the Arabic -speaking media Avihai Adrai published on the social network X fast, which stated: “Synera’s wife entered with him in the tunnel on October 6, carrying Birkin bag, the cost of which is estimated at about $ 32,000?! Comments for you. So far, the residents of Gaza have no money for a tent or essential items, we see many examples of the special love of Yahei Synvar and his wife for money. ” A screenshot from a video published by Israeli military, and a screenshot was attached to the publication online storewhere the Birkin bag was resold for the announced amount. Although Adrai only wondered about the origin of the accessory, his post scored 1.8 million views.

If you examine the bag from the video for the IDF in detail, you can notice its significant differences from the bag that is given in the screenshot in the adrai tweet. Synevar’s wife has a rectangular bag with silver fittings, while two metal plates are sewn to the straps. At the same time at Birkin (in the screenshot Model 40 Black Togo Gold Hardware) golden fittings and not such an elongated form.

A distinctive feature Birkin bags - straps with edges in the shape of a saddle. They are not supplied with fittings, and metal buckles are noticeable on the bag of Synera’s wife in this place.

It is difficult to reliably determine which brand products are shown in the video clip due to low quality video. Search by the photo showed that Synera’s wife’s bag is similar, for example, the Kaidifeinroo brand accessory is the shape, size and color of the accessories, the location and method of fastening the handles coincide. Such a bag Kaidifeinroo Sold On the Alibaba marketplace for $ 14.82.

Even if Synera’s wife really carried Birkin in the hands of Birkin, it is impossible to unequivocally say that this is an original bag for $ 32,000. Birkin bags it is forbidden Buy online, Hermès also does not reveal their cost - it varies depending on the size, material and color. To purchase an accessory, buyer must Pass the internal check Hermès, purchase goods in a particular boutique for a certain amount and add your name to the waiting sheet. At least it is unlikely that the wife of one of the leaders of the organization, recognized as terrorist in the EU and the USA, could go to such a procedure (especially considering that Sinvar hid his whereabouts for many years). However, she could take advantage of the services of dealers engaged in the resale of rare Hermès bags - models similar to adrai tweet, they evaluate from $ 16,000 to $ 32,000.

Information that Synevara’s wife owns a bag for $ 32,000, published several Israeli state institutions on social networks at once: there is such a post, for example, on official page Israel in x, tweet about bag reputed The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country. Notes on this subject were published by Israeli media, for example The Jerusalem Post And ISRAEL HAYOM. The authors of all these publications refer to Adrai and repeat his words that Sryvar led a luxurious life, until the inhabitants of Gaza had enough money to satisfy the basic needs. However, they ignore the fact that the Arabian-language press secretary of the IDF in his tweet left the question of whether the Birkin bag is really shown in the video. 

Thus, there is no evidence that Synera’s wife has a Birkin bag for $ 32,000. The bag captured in the video published in the video is markedly different from the products manufactured under this brand. The first assumption that the leader of the leader Hamas wore an exclusive accessory was made by one of the official representatives of the Israeli army, but later his post began to spread already in the form of a statement.
