The military wing of Islamic Jihad, Al-Quds Brigades, on Sunday accused Israel of assassinating one of its leaders in Syria, Ali Ramzi Al-Aswad, 31, Al Quds reported Sunday. The announcement said he dies Sunday morning in the Damascus countryside as a result of a “cowardly assassination” that “bore the fingerprints of the occupation.”
According to the Islamic Jihad, Al-Aswad’s family left Haifa and resettled in Syria in 1948.
