Hezbollah attacks Israeli posts in response to killing of journalist, civilians

W460

Hezbollah staged an attack on Sunday morning against Israeli military posts on Lebanon's border, drawing Israeli retaliatory fire.

Hezbollah said it shelled Israeli military positions in the northern Israeli border settlement of Shtula. The group said in a statement the attack was in retaliation for Israeli shelling that killed Reuters videographer Issam Abdallah on Friday and two Lebanese civilians on Saturday.

Israel responded by targeting the outskirts of the town of Ait el-Shaab, the Israeli military said. Lebanese media reports said the shelling lightly wounded a Lebanese citizen.

Israel’s Magen David Adom rescue service said a 40-year-old man was killed in the attack from Lebanon, without elaborating or giving his nationality

As Israel wages its war against Hamas over last week’s unprecedented attack by the Gaza Strip militant group, there’s been concern that Hezbollah could enter the war as well as Israel moves toward launching a ground offensive in Gaza.

God bless our Shia resistance aka Hezbollah and the 'Ahali' for protecting our country from the Israeli aggression by attacking Israeli military posts on Lebanon's border. The Israeli enemy and its backers in Washington must know by now that although our Shia resistance is busy improving our economy it will not spare any effort to defend our beautiful country by all available means. Lebaniism is Shiism, full stop!

Shia Shea Shia !!!

People lack humour, Ansarullah, idk why they’re so uptight!
I know Lebanon is about to get flattened should Hezbollah choose to intervene , but we need humour to cope with the situation.

War mongering at its most frivolous putting unwilling Lebanese civilians at great risk of harm from Iran's foreign policy. Allah does not look kindly on such disregard.

It’s true that Nelson Mandela was labeled Terrorist then out of the blue he was declared a hero when he was released after 27 years of imprisonment.

My grandad was a resistant fighter against the Nazi occupation in Europe, people like him were labeled terrorists and were executed immediately when caught unlike soldiers of regular armed forces which were sent to German jails and fed.
