LEBANON WAR

Israel strikes Ain el-Hilweh camp for first time

The Israeli air force carried out a drone strike on the home of Mounir Maqdah, one of the Palestinian officials of Fatah in Lebanon, located in the Ain el-Hilweh refugee camp near Saida in southern Lebanon, according to our correspondent in the region, Mountasser Abdallah. It is unclear whether Mounir Maqdah was at home during the strike.

On August 21, an Israeli strike in southern Lebanon killed his brother, Khalil Maqdah, a leader of Fateh’s armed wing.

The strike in Ain el-Hilweh was heard throughout Saida and caused several injuries, reports our correspondent. Ambulances rushed to the scene. It is the first on the camp since the beginning of the conflict on Oct. 8.
