Israel Retaliates After Hezbollah Bombs Army Vehicles

Matthew 24:6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

Israel launched a military response after Islamic militants bombed one of its army convoys on Monday, reports indicate.

According to the BBC, Israel’s artillery attack against the Lebanese village of Wazzani was a retaliatory measure after the Islamic militant group Hezbollah claimed responsibility for attacking Israeli vehicles that were patrolling contested territory near the Lebanon border.

Hezbollah’s bombing came in the wake of the death of one of its key members, the BBC reported, and the Lebanon-based group had previously said it would seek to avenge Samir Kuntar’s death by attacking Israel.
