3 killed in northern Lebanon suicide kaboom
A splodydope suspected militant killed himself and two members of his family in northern Lebanon on Saturday when he blew himself up during an army raid on his home, security and medical sources said.
Saturday's operation took place in the town of Deir Ammar, northeast of the city of Tripoli. The explosion killed the wife and mother of the splodydope suspect, whose name was Mohammed Hamzeh, a security source said. The source said Hamzeh was part of a group that had pledged allegiance to Daesh.
At least 10 other people were wounded in the blast, including four security personnel. Bullet holes and bloodstains marked the walls and staircase inside the building after the raid.
