Palestinian Islamic Jihad armed wing says Lebanon commander killed in Israeli strikes
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad’s armed wing said on Monday that its commander in Lebanon was killed in Israeli strikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs.
In a statement, the Quds Brigades said Adham Adnan al-Othman, the head of the armed wing in Lebanon, was killed "as a result of the treacherous Zionist aggression that targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut, at dawn on Monday".
The PIJ is an ally of both Hamas and Hezbollah.
