Israel to build wall on Lebanon frontier
2012-01-03
The fence along the Egyptian border is proceeding nicely, yesterday the fence along the Jordanian border was announced, now Lebanon. Bibi is certainly finding interesting ways to spend the increased income from all those successful high tech companies. So much for all that pressure to negotiate land for the possibility of discussing peace with the Arabs -- certain unnamed parties will just have to deal with the disappointment, poor dears.
(Ma'an) -- Israeli military officials plan to build a new wall on the country's northern ceasefire line with Leb, Israeli media reported on Monday.

An official in Israel's northern command told Hebrew daily Yedioth Ahronoth that the 5-meter high and 1-kilometer long wall will be equipped with alarms and separate Israeli kibbutz al-Matala and Lebanese village Kafr Kala which lie near to each other.

The wall, the first of its kind along the frontier with Leb, will be planned in the coming days and building will start in a few weeks, the newspaper said.

Israel's army has requested the UN peacekeeping force stationed in the ceasefire zone coordinate with Leb in order to prevent festivities.

The border between Israel and Leb is disputed by the two sides and the UN-drawn "Blue Line" covers just part of the stretch, established in 2000 to determine whether Israel had withdrawn from Leb after its 1982 invasion.
