JERUSALEM: Israel’s military on Friday said a strike on a Palestinian refugee camp in southern Lebanon earlier this week had killed “13 Hamas terrorists.” “Thirteen Hamas terrorists were eliminated in a precise IDF (military) strike targeting the organization’s training compound in southern Lebanon,” the Israeli military said in a statement on Friday, after Lebanese authorities had announced 13 deaths without specifying their identities.

The Israeli military says it was targeting members of Hamas "operating in a training compound". Hamas has not commented.

Israel continues to attack Lebanon on a near-daily basis in violation of a yearlong ceasefire with Hezbollah.
