| Israel air forces staged mock raids over south Lebanon Wednesday, breaking the sound barrier and causing panic, according to security sources. Israeli warplanes flew at low altitude over villages in south Lebanon as well as inland regions where anti-aircraft guns are manned by Hezbollah resistance movement and the Lebanese army. However, it hasn't been confirmed yet whether the gunners opened up on the intruding planes. Israel has violated Lebanese air space several times since it pulled out its forces from south Lebanon in 2000. |
