Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri killed in alleged Israeli strike in Beirut suburb
[Times Of Israel Liveblog]
*The Ramallah branch of PA President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party announces a general strike for tomorrow in response to the alleged Israeli strike that killed Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri in Lebanon earlier this evening.
The announcement further demonstrates Hamas’s popularity in the West Bank.
Notably, though, Hamas’s support in Gaza — which has faced the brunt of the terror group’s decisions — is not as high, according to recent polls.
*The Hezbollah-linked al-Mayadeen news site reports that the death count from tonight’s alleged Israeli airstrike on a Hamas office near Beirut has climbed from four to six.
