Mossad Behind Lebanon Car Bomb Attack

BEIRUT (Dispatches) – A recent report has revealed that the Zionist regime’s Mossad spy agency had orchestrated a car bomb explosion in the southern Lebanese city of Sidon that targeted a member of the Palestinian Islamic resistance movement, Hamas, earlier this week.
The Lebanese Army Intelligence Directorate and the Internal Security Forces Directorate have managed to identify the ringleader of the cell that carried out the assassination operation against Mohammed Hamdan on January 14, according to a report published by Lebanon’s Arabic-language al-Akhbar newspaper on Saturday.
He was identified as 38-year-old Ahmad Baytiyah, who descends from the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli, situated 85 kilometers north of the capital Beirut, but lives in the Dutch capital Amsterdam.
Baytiyah was recruited by Mossad and used to travel between Lebanon and the Netherlands frequently. He arrived at Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport on January 9.
