The Saudi-owned al-Arabiya outlet, citing unidentified sources, says that the target of the Israeli drone strike near Sidon is Samer al-Hajj, a Hamas official in charge of security in the Ain al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp. Lebanese outlets also report that al-Hajj was the target of the raid.

Al-Arabiya says that both al-Hajj and another Hamas member were killed in the strike.
