Breaking: Al-Arabiya reports Hamas head of weapons acquisition killed in Sudan

His name was not given. The driver was a local Sudanese national.Israel Radio said that there was no other confirmation for the report.
There has been speculation in the international media that Israel carried out a targeted assassination in Sudan earlier today.
It would seem that the head of Hamas' weapons acquisition would be the man who replaced Mahmoud al-Mabhouh. Mabhouh was allegedly liquidated by Israel in Dubai in January 2010.
Heh.

I don't see this story on Al Arabiya, English or Arabic. Just a general story saying that they don't know who was killed. I did mention another report saying that it was a Palestinian and an Iranian.
I'm literally taking a le'chaim from my bar, in honor of the good work done.
Baruch Hashem v'toda rabbah l'Zahal!
Sudan? Maybe they're into weapons sales and brokerage as well as purchase. Next step for Hamas, the heroin trade.
