Palestinian Resistance group Hamas said Friday that one of its commanders was martyred in an Israeli air strike in southeastern Lebanon, near the Syrian border.

Sharhabil Sayed was martyred "after he was targeted by an Israeli occupation aircraft," Hamas' military wing, al-Qassam Brigades, said in a statement.

Lebanon's civil defense agency reported "one martyr and two wounded due to an Israeli air strike" on a vehicle near Majdal Anjar, a town around five kilometers from the Syrian border and around 60 kilometers from Lebanon's border area with occupied Palestine.

CCTV footage of the attack shows that the Israeli occupation forces launched Four missiles at a moving truck that had traffic around it, one of which nearly hit a civilian vehicle to the left of the targeted vehicle.
