Top Hamas official Saleh al-Arouri, whom Netanyahu threatened to kill even before war, assassinated in blast

India TV News  

Israel-Hamas war: An explosion in Beirut on Tuesday killed Saleh Arouri, a top official with the Palestinian militant group Hamas and three others, officials with Hamas and the Lebanese group Hezbollah said. The explosion shook Musharafieh, one of the Lebanese capital’s southern suburbs, which are a stronghold of the militant Hezbollah group, which is an ally of Hamas. The explosion came during more than two months of heavy exchanges of fire between Israeli troops and members of Hezbollah along Lebanon’s southern border. Since the fighting began on Oct. 8, the fighting has been concentrated a few miles from the border but on several occasions, Israel’s air force hit Hezbollah targets deeper in Lebanon.
