A militant from Iraq’s Hezbollah Brigades armed group was killed Friday in a strike targeting pro-Iran factions in Syria, a group member said, blaming Israel for the attack, reports. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights war monitor said a Hezbollah Brigades member was killed, but was unable to verify the strike itself. The Britain-based monitor, which relies on a network of sources on the ground in Syria, said the member’s burned-out vehicle was found about 10 kilometres from Damascus airport. The Hezbollah Brigades member said the Israeli raid hit one of the group’s premises, killing Abu Haidar al-Khafaji, a senior member of the group. Another member was reportedly wounded in the attack.
