The Israeli military claims its forces opened fire on four alleged Hezbollah fighters who entered the so-called “security zone” it has established in southern Lebanon, the second such incident within hours, AFP reports.
The army claims the fighters entered the zone on a bulldozer and a motorcycle, and that the soldiers initially fired warning shots as they approached troops deployed there.
“After the terrorists continued to approach and failed to comply with the soldiers’ calls, additional fire was conducted in order to remove the threat. Hits were identified,” the military claims.
