More Hezbollah fire on northern front
2002-04-10
  • Hizbullah fired more than a dozen rockets and mortars from Lebanon into the Golan Heights and the Galilee panhandle on Wednesday in one of the biggest cross-border attacks since Israel's withdrawal from Lebanon two years ago. At least one person was injured in an Israeli army post along the frontier, police and army officials said. More than a dozen Soviet-made Katyusha rockets were fired in the barrage. Israeli leaders have held Syria, the main power in Lebanon, responsible for guerrilla attacks on northern Israel, and have said they would retaliate if the rocket fire did not stop.
    It's still just harrassing fire. The Hezb is probably as much concerned with its own position within Lebanon as it is with the Palestinians. They're pretending to be Heroic Freedom Fighters knowing the IDF doesn't have the time for the likes of them - yet.
