Hezbollah attacks Israel...
This will be hardly noticed in the mainstream press.
Four Hezbollah men were killed during a multi-pronged attack on Israel Defense Forces positions on the northern border with Lebanon on Monday afternoon. The gunmen apparently infiltrated Israel's border in an attempt to kidnap IDF soldiers.
At least 10 Israelis were wounded in the Hezbollah attacks, including a civilian resident of the border village of Rajar, were wounded in the incident. The Rajar man was lightly wounded by mortar shrapnel.
One of the Israelis was seriously wounded.
Hezbollah operatives attacked a number of Israeli targets simultaneously starting shortly before 3 P.M. Gunners began firing mortar shells at IDF outposts in the Har Dov area. At the same time, a Hezbollah cell crossed the border in Ghajar and opened fire on an IDF outpost there.
The Hezbollah kidnapping attempt was foiled when alert IDF units responded rapidly and returned fire, targeting Hezbollah positions in south Lebanon.
Hezbollah men also fired light arms at Israeli farmers working in fields near Metula and launched a Katyusha rocket at the northern town. An anti-tank missile scored a direct hit on a Metula house. There were no casualties as the family was not home at the time.
