An Israeli drone strike on a car near the Lebanon-Syria border has killed a prominent Syrian businessman who was sanctioned by the United States and had close to Syrian President Bashar Assad's government.
Palestinians evacuate from a site hit by an Israeli bombardment on Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, Saturday, July 13, 2024. Israel said it targeted Hamas' shadowy military commander in a massive strike Saturday in the crowded southern Gaza Strip that killed at least 71 people, according to local health officials. Hamas immediately rejected the claim that Mohammed Deif was targeted.
Mohammed Baraa Katerji was killed instantly in his SUV on the highway linking Lebanon with Syria, according to an official from an Iran-backed group. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. Katerji and his brother Hussam — widely referred to in Syria as the “Katerji brothers” — got involved in the oil business a few years after the country’s conflict began in March 2011.
Associated Press footage showed a Red Crescent ambulance blaring its horn as it rushed the wounded up to the crowded entrance of Al Aqsa hospital. A man sat upright in a stretcher, blood running down his dust-covered face. Another man lay on his side, his skin peeled and burnt, but managed to point his index finger to the sky — a gesture used by Muslims to profess their faith in God. A wounded boy grimaced as he was carried inside.
