2018-01-15 | |
[Al Jazeera] A boom-mobile kaboom in the southern Lebanese city of Sidon has slightly maimed a member of Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,, according to the Paleostinian group, which blamed Israel for the liquidation attempt. Mohammed Hamdan suffered a leg injury on Sunday after a bomb planted in his car detonated, Hamas' media group said in a statement. "Initial indications point to Zionist [Israeli] fingers behind this criminal act," Hamas said without further details. Hamdan was taken to a local hospital for treatment, according to local media reports and a photograph released by Hamas. Lebanese news outlets said the blast took place as the Paleostinian was getting into his booby-trapped BMW in the area of al-Boustan al-Kabir in Sidon, some 40km south of the Lebanese capital, Beirut.
In an interview with the right-wing Galei Israel radio station, Katz is asked if Israel had a hand in the bombing. He quips, "If we’d been involved, this wouldn’t have ended with him lightly maimed." | |
