Damascus suburb hit by ‘Israeli strike targeting Hezbollah leader' Samir Kuntar: reports
An alleged Israeli air strike hit a multi-storey residential building in the Damascus district of Jaramana causing several casualties, Syria's state media said early on Sunday.
Israel reased Kuntar, who spent 29 years in Israeli custody over the brutal slaying of four Israelis in a 1979 terror raid on the northern Israeli town of Nahariya, in 2008 as part of a prisoner swap with the Lebanese Shi'ite Hezbollah group.
In August, an Arab newspaper reported that Kuntar may have been killed by what was believed to have been an Israeli drone strike after he recruited some 120 Syrian Druse to fight on behalf of President Bashar Assad or Hezbollah.
