A Palestinian youth was killed and two others wounded in a shooting in Tripoli, northern Lebanon, according to Lebanese media. Lebanese security officials, citing an investigation by the Al-Makhta network, claim the Mossad orchestrated the assassination, alleging the operatives infiltrated from Syria via Wadi Khaled. The target was reportedly a liaison for two Hamas operatives previously killed in airstrikes in the area.
The incident occurred in Tripoli, northern Lebanon, where a shooting killed Safi Waleed Ghazawi, a resident of the al-Baddawi camp, and seriously wounded his companion Ibrahim Azzam and a passerby, according to Lebanese media. Lebanese security forces, citing an investigation by the Al-Makhta network, allege the Mossad infiltrated from Syria via Wadi Khaled, gathered intelligence, and fled on a motorcycle later recovered. The target reportedly served as a liaison for two Hamas operatives — Waseem and Sa'eed al-Ali — previously killed in airstrikes in the area. The claims remain unverified by Israeli officials, and Israel has not commented on the incident.
