Mossad Snipers Shot a General from a Moving Cable Car Above the Valley

In the spring of 1974, a retired trader named Georges Fakhri took the afternoon sun on a terrace above Toulon, some 584 metres up the flank of Mont Faron, certain the mountain had hidden him. It had not. His real name was General Safwan al-Rayes, and he had ordered the deaths of civilians in 1970 before disappearing into a protected exile no court could reach. The one habit he trusted was the little 1959 cable car that carried the mountain's residents home — two cabins on a single rope, always crossing at the exact centre of the span. For a handful of seconds at that mid-point, on a windless afternoon, a cabin stops swaying and the sightline opens clean across the ravine to his chair. A Mossad marksman bought a ticket to ride up and meet it.
