Israel has killed the head of the Hamas network in Syria as air strikes continue to pummel the Middle East. At least six people have been killed as the Israeli air force targeted Hezbollah production sites they claimed were under civilian housing, although this number is expected to rise today and charities say the country is facing the prospect of a humanitarian 'catastrophe'. The IDF this morning claimed to have eliminated the head of the Palestinian Hamas's network in southern Syria, whom it referred to as Ahmad Muhammad Fahd. In Lebanon, they said strikes had killed the commander of Hezbollah's missile unit in southern Lebanon, Muhammad Ali Ismail, and his deputy, Hussein Ahmad Ismail, who they claimed had taken part in 'numerous' attacks on Israel.
