2011-08-07
[An Nahar] Fatah's military commander in Leb Sobhi Abu Arab said that the movement handed the Lebanese military intelligence the accused in the attempted murder of chief of Paleostinian Armed Struggle in the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp Mahmoud Issa.

"The suspects (Mahmoud Omar al-Foutani and Omar Abu Kharoub) had confessed of planting an explosive on Friday on the road routes that Mahoud Issa, also known as al-Lino, takes to Salah Eddine mosque in the camp," Abu Arab told the Central News Agency on Saturday.

He said that the "bomb weighed 2.5 kilograms of kabooms."

The military commander noted that those who are behind this operation reside in al-Tawaree neighborhood inside the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp.

Abu Arab stressed that the "suspects received orders from Fatah al-Isalm and Jund al-Sham commander Sheikh Osama al-Shihabi."

"Those two organizations are working on reorganizing their ranks in the camp by focusing on the younger generation," the News Agency quoted him as saying.

He warned that Fatah is aware of "their (Fatah al-Isalm and Jund al-Sham) movements and will strike with an iron fist in the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp to preserve stability."

Meanwhile,
...back at the bunker, his Excellency called a meeting. It was to be his last...
Fatah sources told the news agency that there are more than 30 members from Fatah al-Isalm and Jund al-Sham in the Ain al-Hilweh refugee camp.

The sources remarked that they receive orders from radical Islamic organizations.
