Syria-Lebanon-Iran

3 Amal fighters killed in Israeli strike on Marjeyoun

2024-04-07

[An Nahar] An Israeli ~~Arclight~~ airstrike
...KABOOM!...
on a house in southern ~~Lebanon~~ Hezbollahstan
...Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. ...
has killed three Amal Movement fighters, the Hezbollah-allied movement said.

Israel said warplanes bombed what it described as an Amal military compound and said the group was planning an attack against Israel. The military statement said its jets also struck several locations used by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, and a jet attacked a person doing "drone observation activity" near the border.

Friday's violence comes as Israel has been trading fire almost daily with Hezbollah and other Lebanese bully boy groups for months. The attack on Amal was the first Israeli attack on Marjeyoun, a large town in southeastern Lebanon, since the latest round of cross-border festivities began on Oct. 8.

Hezbollah, a close ally to the Paleostinian bully boy group Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,, says the festivities aim to pressure Israel to end its war in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Fears of the Israel-Hamas war spilling over into other Mideast countries worsened this week after an Israeli airstrike hit the Iranian Consulate building in Syria.

#2 The town of Marjeyoun is situated with Mount Hermon to the east, the Crusader castle of Beaufort overlooking the Litani River and Mount Amel (Jabal Amel) to the west, and the Mount Lebanon range extending northward. The fertile Marjeyoun plains also stretch southward into the Galilee plains and the Golan Heights.
If Israel has ceased its attack on Rafa (as announced today) the citizens of Marjayoun can breathe more easily. The invasion of that region of Lebanon will also have been called off.
