...KABOOM!...
s on Hezbollah targets in Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
today in response to attacks on northern Israel.

It says the targets hit by fighter jets in Labbouneh, Ramyah and Ayta ash-Shab included various infrastructure used by the terror group.

Several missiles were fired by Hezbollah today at northern Israel. The terror group claims to target IDF positions near Menara, Yiftah, Malkia and Zar’it.

The IDF says it is shelling the launch sites with artillery. # id) ?>
