A senior Hamas official has been killed in a drone strike in Lebanon.
Saleh al-Arouri was declared dead after an explosion which targeted the south Beirut suburb of Dahiyeh, a Hezbollah stronghold.
He was one of the top Hamas leaders on Israel’s target list following the terrorist group’s October 7 massacre of at least 1,200 people in the northwestern Negev.
According to Hamas’s Al-Aqsa Radio, the drone strike was Israeli. However, Israel have yet to confirm this.
In a statement cited by Saudi Arabia’s Al Arabiya channel on Tuesday, Hamas described Al-Arouri as the “architect” of the massacre.
