An interesting variation on the usual Turban toes up thanks to IDF headline. [IsraelTimes] A Saudi national fighting for Hezbollah was killed in Lebanon yesterday, according to the Lebanese paper, L’Orient Le Jour, seemingly marking the first such case of a citizen of the kingdom being killed in Israel’s war against the Iran-backed terror group.The man, named as Omran Karim, hailed from the Shiite-majority city of Qatif on the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia. He worked as a dentist in Beirut’s southern Dahiyeh suburb, a Hezbollah stronghold, according to the paper. Karim was reportedly the son of Ahmad Ibrahim al-Moughassil, aka Abu Omran, head of Hezbollah’s branch in Saudi Arabia and the mastermind of a 1996 terror attack that killed 19 US soldiers in the kingdom. Al-Moughassil was arrested in Beirut by the Saudi intelligence service in 2015 and extradited to Saudi Arabia. |
