Hamas says commander killed in Israel strike in Lebanon's Bekaa
[An Nahar] Paleostinian Death Eater group Hamas ..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...said that a "commander" was killed in an Israeli strike on an eastern district of Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... near the Syrian border. Hamas' armed wing, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, said in a statement that "commander" Sharhabil Sayed was killed "after he was targeted by Israeli occupation aircraft" in Lebanon's West Bekaa area. A source close to the Paleostinian Death Eater group, speaking on condition of anonymity ... for fear of being murdered... , had earlier told AFP that Sayed was a Hamas official responsible for Lebanon's Bekaa region and "was killed in an Israeli strike that targeted his vehicle." Lebanon's civil defense agency reported "one martyr and two maimed due to an Israeli air strike" on a vehicle near Majdal Anjar, a town around five kilometers from the Syrian border and around 60 kilometers from Lebanon's border with Israel. Lebanon's official National News Agency reported one dead and two maimed in an "enemy strike" that targeted a vehicle in the same area. An AFP photographer saw a vehicle that had been destroyed in the raid. The strike came after Israeli strikes earlier in the day killed a Hezbollah fighter and two children, according to the Lebanese Death Eater group and official media. After Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel triggered war in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... , its powerful Lebanese ally Hezbollah has exchanged near-daily fire with Israeli forces across the border. The attacks have been intensifying, with Israeli forces increasingly striking deep into Lebanese territory, while Paleostinian factions and other allied groups in Lebanon have also claimed cross-border attacks. Hezbollah earlier this week announced that its chief Sayyed His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah ...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...> had met with senior Hamas member Khalil al-Hayya.
