Lebanon’s Hezbollah condemns the “treacherous” Israeli attacks that killed three senior members of Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza.

“The Zionist enemy’s barbaric strikes that targeted freedom fighters and women and children is a crime against humanity,” Hezbollah says in a statement quoted by al-Mayadeen.

Hezbollah, which like Palestinian Islamic Jihad is backed by Iran, also declares its “complete solidarity with our brothers in the PIJ and our support for all steps taken by the PIJ leadership.”
