Israel to expand Hezbollah attacks
Israel will “expand and strengthen” its attack on Hezbollah guerrillas in Lebanon, the defence minister said today, diminishing hopes that a 48-hour halt in air strikes could be turned into a longer-term ceasefire.
Hezbollah guerrillas attacked an Israeli tank in southern Lebanon today, wounding three soldiers, and Israeli warplanes fired into open areas near the village of Taybeh to protect its ground forces, the military said.
