Israeli commando raid, airstrikes and ground fighting kill at least 23
Israeli commandos landed on a southern hilltop near Lebanon’s Mediterranean coast today, fighting Hezbollah in close combat in a bid to destroy its rocket launchers, as warplanes launched fresh airstrikes across the country, killing at least 23 people.
The stepped up bombardment and the commando operation came a day after Hezbollah’s rockets killed 15 Israelis.
