according to cctv news, in the early morning of october 1, local time, the israel defense forces carried out an air strike on a target in the ain halwa refugee camp near the southern lebanese city of sidon. ain halwa refugee camp is the largest of the 12 palestinian refugee camps in lebanon, housing tens of thousands of people.
according to reuters, this is the first time the israeli army has attacked this refugee camp since a new round of large-scale palestinian-israeli conflict broke out on october 7 last year. palestinian security officials said that the target of the israeli attack was munir magda, the commander of the lebanese branch of the "aqsa martyrs brigades", a military organization affiliated with palestinian fatah. his current whereabouts are unknown.
the united nations relief and works agency for palestine refugees in the near east said most of the refugees in the ain halwa camp come from coastal towns in pre-1948 palestine, but in recent years it has also hosted syrians fleeing the civil war in their country.
