Smadar Haran, the only survivor of the 1979 terror attack carried out by Samir Kuntar that killed her family, called his death a "historic justice," according to opposition leader Isaac Herzog who quoted her on his Twitter account.
"He was a terrorist that never abandoned the way of terror and murder for even a single day. The region is safer without him."
Syrian reports claimed Sunday morning that Kuntar was killed during an Israeli airstrike.
