Hama is a different city in Syria.

Al-Hama الهامة(also spelled Alhama, Alhame, Elhama, Elhame or alhameh) is a small village in Syria west of Damascus on the Barada river. The town was the target of repeated raids and attacks by the Israeli military[1], [2], [3], [4],[5], especially prior to the destruction of an early PLO training camp located on the town's outskirts. One of the more notable attacks occurred during the 1973 Arab-Israeli War; Israel fighter jets attacked a power plant that was in the middle of the town, destroying it completely and killing 87 people.
