[IsraelTimes] Israel says it killed the head of the Paleostinian Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...

...KABOOM!...
yesterday.

Muhammad Abdullah was made the head of the Iran-backed terror group in the Tulkarem-area camp after his predecessor Muhhamad Jabber was killed in a gunbattle in late August, the Israel Defense Forces says.

The IDF says Abdullah was killed in a strike from the air alongside a second terrorist, without naming the second person.
Possibly hit his Number 2, who never had a chance to be #1.
The army says Abdullah was responsible for organizing the group’s activities, including "many attacks." It accuses him of deploying explosives against Israeli troops.

The army says troops on the ground seized semi-automatic rifles and flack-jackets found on the pair, the IDF says.

Official Paleostinian Authority news outlet Wafa says troops also seized the bodies of the two, naming the second fatality as Awad Omar from the nearby town of Bal’a.
