IDF: More than 15 rocket launchers, Hezbollah sites targeted in south Lebanon airstrikes
[IsraelTimes] More than 15 rocket launchers and sites belonging to Hezbollah were targeted in a series of ... KABOOM!... s in southern 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...this evening, the IDF says. According to the military, some of the launchers were primed for rocket attacks on Israel. The IDF says that immediately following the strikes, rockets were seen flying out of some of the targeted launchers, which landed in Lebanese territory. The military publishes footage of the strikes. According to Lebanese media, the strikes occurred in the Nabatieh Governate. Posted by: trailing wife 2024-09-07 |
