5 Palestinia­n fighters killed in Lebanon blast blamed on Israel

HOLLYWOOD actor Al Pacino is set to become a father again at the age of 83, with his 29-year old partner Noor Alfallah expecting a child, according to multiple reports.

Pacino’s representa­tive confirmed the news to multiple news outlets, including People, The Hollywood Reporter and E.

The actor, best known for his roles in “Scarface” (1983) and “The Godfather” series, has three other children – two with Beverly D’Angelo and one with Jan Tarrant.

In 2014, Pacino told the New Yorker magazine how the fact that his father left him and his mother when he was two has shaped his relationsh­ip with his children.

“It’s the missing link, so to speak,” he said. “Having children has helped a lot. I consciousl­y knew that I didn’t

want to be like my dad. I wanted to be there. I have three children. I’m responsibl­e to them. I’m a part of their life. When I’m not, it’s upsetting to me and to them.”

Pacino won the Academy Award for Best Actor for 1992’s “Scent of a Woman,” and has also received multiple nomination­s throughout his career.

A hardline Palestinia­n group which maintains bases in eastern Lebanon said on Wednesday that Israel has hit one of its bases in eastern Lebanon, killing five of its members.

The Israeli military did not immediatel­y comment on the incident, but several Israeli media reported that Israel was not behind the attack.

Anwar Raja, spokesman for the Popular Front for the Liberation of palestine - General Command (PFLP-GC), told DPA by phone from his headquarte­rs in Damascus that Israel carried out a dawn attack on their base in Qusaya in eastern Lebanon.

He added that the strike wounded 10 fighters and also inflicted material damage.

The PFLP-GC, which was headed by the late hardline Palestinia­n leader Ahmad Jebril, maintains bases in eastern Lebanon and in neighbouri­ng Syria.

The last Israeli strike on the group was in 2019, when an Israeli drone hit one of their bases in eastern Lebanon.
