Sept 30: Hamas on Monday announced that its leader in Lebanon, Fatah Sharif, also known as Abu Al-Amin, was killed alongside multiple members of his family in an Israeli strike on the south of the country.
Hamas described Sharif as “leader of the Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas in Lebanon and a member of the movement’s leadership abroad.”
The group said his wife, son and daughter were also killed in the same strike, which it said took place in the El Buss refugee camp, on the outskirts of the city of Tyre.
It was not immediately clear how senior Sharif was within Hamas. CNN has reached out to the Israeli military for comment.
