Islamic Jihad ex-chief buried in Syria despite Egyptian okay for Gaza funeral

Ramadan Shalah, the former leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group, is hastily buried at Al Yarmouk Camp in Damacus, reports say, an hour after the organization said Egypt agreed for the funeral to take place in Gaza.

The abrupt change sparks speculation that Egypt backtracked at the last minute at Israel’s demand.
