Commander in Islamic Jihad's military wing killed along with three others in traffic accident
A commander in the al-Quds Brigades, Islamic Jihad's military wing, was killed in a traffic accident that occurred Saturday near the southern Gaza town of Khan Younis.
A spokesman for the terror group said the man, named Abu Mohammed al-Rezaine, was a commander of al-Quds in the northern Gaza Strip.
The Palestinian news agency Ma'an reported that three other people travelling with the commander in the car were also killed after it crashed headlong into a tree.
Eyewitnesses said the car, a Mercedes, was travelling very fast and attempted to bypass a truck going in the opposite direction when the accident occurred.
