Israeli aircraft raid south Lebanon
2005-01-18
An Israeli jet has launched a bombing raid on an area adjacent to the disputed Shebaa Farms, following an attack by Hizb Allah on an Israeli bulldozer, Lebanese police said. On Monday Hizb Allah fired two missiles on a hilltop position in Alman al-Qusair that had been held by Israel before its 2000 pullout from south Lebanon, the police said. Israeli artillery opened up after this attack, firing nearly 45 shells in 15 minutes around the villages of Kfar Shuba, Rashaya al-Fakhar, Kfar Hamam and Halta, wounding two women, security sources said.

An AFP correspondent saw Israeli helicopters and other aircraft overflying Lebanese soil at low altitude. Israeli military sources confirmed that the bulldozer had been hit but said it had suffered only material damage and the attack had caused no casualties. Hizb Allah's Al-Manar television station said the attack on the vehicle caused casualties and that an Israeli ambulance rushed to the scene.
