Israel fires at South, drops leaflets as US military team tours valleys
A woman and her daughter narrowly escaped unharmed Thursday after Israeli forces opened fire at their car on the Kfar Kila road in Lebanon’s southern border region, the state-run National News Agency said.
Israeli artillery meanwhile fired two shells at the Bustra farm and the outskirts of the southern town of Shebaa.
Israeli aircraft meanwhile dropped fake currency carrying anti-Hezbollah propaganda over the Naqoura Municipality building and other areas of the south.
“Hezbollah’s dollar is haram (forbidden in Islam) and will not benefit you after it destroyed your house and displaced your family,” says one of the Arabic-language warnings written on the fake currency.
“Do no miscalculate things, do not accept the yellow dollar,” says another warning.
A U.S. military team accompanied by a Lebanese Army force meanwhile toured valleys in the southern areas of al-Qusayr, Deir Seryan and al-Taybeh, Al-Akhbar newspaper reported.
The developments come on a day that Israel carried out a wave of violent airstrikes in the Nabatieh region, allegedly targeting a Hezbollah military complex.
