BEIRUT — A previously unknown group claimed responsibility in Lebanon today for the terrorist assault on a Greek tourist ship in which nine people were killed and 80 injured.
“The Organization of Martyrs of the Popular Revolution in Palestine--Abu Jihad Unit--launched a swift attack on tens of Zionist, American and British soldiers on board the Greek ship City of Poros,” the group said in a statement. The two-page typewritten statement in Arabic was sent to an international news agency in Muslim West Beirut.
