|
[JPost] Step up, #...errr 27!
Three PFLP leaders killed in strike in Kola district of Beirut. Hezbollah claimed Israel had carried out the strikes in Kola on their Telegram channel.
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) said in a statement in the early hours of Monday that three of its leaders were killed in an alleged Israeli strike that targeted Beirut's Kola district, Reuters and Sky News Arabic reported.
The strike hit an upper floor of an apartment building in the Kola district, making it the first Israeli strike within Beirut’s city limits in the escalating hostilities, Reuters added.
According to Sky News Arabic, the members killed in the strike were named as Muhammad Abdel Aal, the head of the military security department of the PFLP, Imad Awda, the PFLP's military commander in Lebanon, and Abdul Rahman Abdel Aal.
Lebanon's National Broadcasting Network claimed that the strike was carried out by an Israeli UAV.
DETAILS OF THE STRIKE
KAN posted video footage of the aftermath of an explosion, with people crowding around the rubble. Sirens can be heard in the background. Al-Mayadeen reported that an unexploded missile was still in the targeted apartment in Beirut.
Local Lebanese media sites and Al Jazeera referred to it as a targeted Israeli strike. Israel has not yet confirmed any details of the strike.
Additionally Sunday night, the IDF announced they were carrying out strikes on Hezbollah terror targets in the Beqaa region of southern Lebanon.
While dwarfed by Hezbollah in Lebanon, PFLP has been taking part in the fighting against Israel alongside the larger Iran-backed terror group. The airstrike also wounded 16 people, said an official with Lebanese Civil Defense, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Syrians living in southern Lebanon who had fled Israeli bombardment had been sleeping under a bridge in the Kola neighborhood for days, residents of the area said.
