Jund Al-Sham leader Shehada Jawhar, who was wounded the night of July 19 during clashes at the Ein Al-Hilweh Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, died the morning of July 20.
Two others were killed and four were wounded in the clashes between the Fatah mainstream and Jund Al-Sham, an Al-Qaeda-inspired Islamist group.
The other two killed were Abdul Nasser Al-Dawali, a Jund Al-Sham member, and Walid Salloum, member of a committee formed to resolve differences between rival Palestinian factions, according to Palestinian officials.
Palestinian resistance leader Gen. Munir Al-Mukdah said that the clash was the result of a personal dispute and was not politically motivated. He added, "Jawhar was not with Jund Al-Sham, but he was with Usbat Al-Ansar."
