Israel claims brother of Michigan synagogue attacker was Hezbollah commander
"Ibrahim Ghazali was eliminated in an [Israeli air force] strike on a Hezbollah military structure last week, the IDF's post said. Ayman Ghazali shot himself to death when security at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, confronted him after his attack there on Thursday."
"a Hezbollah official reportedly confirmed to the New York Times that Ayman Ghazali's attack on Temple Israel, one of the largest in the country, was revenge for the loss of four family members during an Israeli military strike in Lebanon on 5 March."
"Ayman Ghazali, a naturalized US citizen born in Lebanon, on Thursday then drove his Ford F-150 truck into Temple Israel on West Bloomfield's Walnut Lake, which had taken steps to strengthen security in response to previous attacks at places of worship as well as antisemitic incidents."
Ayman Mohamad Ghazali attacked Temple Israel in Michigan on Thursday, driving his truck into the building and opening fire before shooting himself when confronted by security. The IDF claimed his brother Ibrahim was a Hezbollah commander managing weapons in the Badr unit responsible for launching hundreds of rockets at Israeli civilians, and that Ibrahim was eliminated in a recent Israeli air strike. A Hezbollah official confirmed to the New York Times that Ayman's attack was revenge for four family members killed during an Israeli military strike in Lebanon on March 5. Ayman, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Lebanon, had attended a memorial service for his slain family members at a mosque in Michigan on March 8, three days before the synagogue attack.
