Fatah Islam Detainee Admits to Attack on UNIFIL
Palestinian detainee Salim Kayed admitted to planting a roadside bomb that targeted a U.N. patrol belonging to the Tanzanian contingent on Qassmiyeh Bridge near the southern port city of Tyre in the summer of 2007.
Kayed said he was working under instructions from Abu Mohammed Awad, a Palestinian wanted in the Fatah al-Islam criminal dossier.
Awad is said to be the new leader of Fatah al-Islam in Ain el-Hilweh after its leader Shaker Abssi went missing following the end of the fighting with the Lebanese army at the northern refugee camp of Nahr el-Bared.
