The Lebanese terror group Hezbollah hails the terror attack in Beersheba that left four Israelis dead yesterday, after a day-long delay.
“This is a true expression of the spirit of jihad and authentic resistance by the Palestinian people,” the group says, according to official Hezbollah media.
The assailant, Mohammad Abu al-Qi’an, was a resident of the southern Bedouin town of Hura. He was jailed in 2016 for his affiliation with the Islamic State.
