Several Hamas officials who were living in Lebanon have fled to neighboring countries, in the wake of Israel’s assassination of Hamas deputy chief Saleh al-Arouri in Beirut’s southern suburbs, the Israeli Public Broadcasting Corporation has reported.

“After Arouri’s killing in Beirut’s southern suburbs on January 2, some of Hamas’ official moved to Turkey and Syria,” the Corporation said.

“The movement’s spokesman Ghazi Hamad has been in Cairo since Arouri’s killing and he supposedly does not plan to return to Lebanon,” the Corporation added.
