ISIS bombing takes out senior Hezbollah leader

  • 9 years ago
Among the 45 dead from a double suicide bombing Thursday at a Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut, which was claimed by Islamic State , is a senior official in the Iranian Shi'ite terror proxy Hezbollah.
Over 200 people were wounded in the blasts that the White House rushed to condemned , and which took place in the Ain el Sikkeh area, next to the Burj el-Barajneh Palestinian "refugee camp."
Following the attack Thursday, which targets Hezbollah due to the latter's actions over the last several years propping up Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria and consequently fighting ISIS, Hezbollah ordered its members not to congregate or sit in crowded areas such as cafes out of fears of follow up attacks.
