STORYLINE:
Israel targeted the outskirts of the Lebanese border town of Ait al-Shaab with shelling on Sunday after Hezbollah militants hit Israeli positions in northern Shtula, according to the Israeli military.
Hezbollah said in a statement the attack was in retaliation to Israeli shelling that killed Reuters videographer Issam Abdallah Friday and two Lebanese civilians on Saturday.
The group said that it fired rockets at an Israeli tank at a military position just south of Lebanon, claiming there were killed and wounded among the Israeli troops there.
Israel's Magen David Adom rescue service said a 40-year-old man was killed in the attack from Lebanon, without elaborating or giving his nationality.
Israel later closed off areas up to 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) from the border and ordered civilians within 2 kilometers to shelter in safe rooms.
Clashes between the Iran-backed group and the Israeli military have intensified in recent days.
Hezbollah has warned that it would escalate if Israel conducts a ground incursion into Gaza to eliminate the Palestinian Hamas group, a key ally.
Israel considers Hezbollah its most serious immediate threat, estimating it has some 150,000 rockets and missiles, including precision-guided missiles that can hit anywhere in Israel.
The group, which has thousands of battle-hardened fighters who participated in Syria’s 12-year conflict, also has different types of military drones.
The possibility of a new front in Lebanon brings back bitter memories of a vicious monthlong war between Hezbollah and Israel in 2006 that ended in a stalemate and a tense detente between the two sides.

Crazy to watch WWIII starting right before our eyes.
Buckle up, because it’s going to be one heck of a ride.
honestly doubt it, other nations are preparing for war against us but not yet.
Europa: the last battle watch it its 12 hours documentary about ww1 and the 1st hour will show you whats going on today bc of ppl of the past and their agreements to fuck the world
As if
Right wingers have been pushing for this for years. Seems like an inside job within Hamas, not everyone knew. They were trained by Wagner so just let’s you know the motive. Russia is doubling down on Ukraine. Russia created a war on several fronts now. 🫴
I tried to watch a bit of news on the issue, but it is little more than commercials - an obese woman singing about lowering her A1C whatever the hell that is, some dork with a gross skin condition talking about how kayaking is his thing as if I give a shit, blacks talking about their HIV meds and singing about BK whoppers and how they are lovin McDonalds, ad nauseum.
Is this the mindless consumerism which Russia and many other nations aren't impressed with to our astonishment?
And which we think the rest of the 🌎 should admire and want to replicate by being just like us?
FIGHT YOUR OWN WARS.
Ah, yes, Israel spreading "peace" as usual. Such a peaceful nation with surely no corrupt politicians.
Israel spreading peace with Obama's religion of peace.
LOLOL You're perception of REALITY is one of the most IGNORANT thing I have EVER READ! What PLANET are you on?🤪
Lol careful , anytime you criticize them you get warnings or called anti semetic
Bumping them gums again hu definitely a habit of yours😮
You could get in the middle and all three of you can destroy yourselfs how shallow.
Great work on both sides! Keep it up!
Seriously, I hope both sides lose. They're both evil af. Both sides are terrorists, both sides have committed war crimes, but only one is both terrorists AND an apartheid state. Israel is the greater evil but I'm not supporting the lesser evil because I dont support evil in any form.

You know in another 2k years, if humans still exist, we will still be fighting over the same small piece of land trying to prove who has the stronger imaginary friend.
It's about EUROPEAN COLONIALIZATION...not religion
Cringe atheists having to comment their thoughts as usual.

🛸 👽 What's going on down there? 🌍
A real smokescreen😂 ain't nothing happening until America gives the go ahead.
It aint that bad
Business as usual mostly
At some point you have to blame Israel for their inability to secure peace with any of their neighbors.
It takes two to tango. Arafat and Rabin came close.
Prayers for Israel
I think that Netanyahu should give the Palestinian people another chance since he has been so nice and given them mercy more mercy and respect latitude than the Hamas Hezbollah shites leaders encouraging and igniting fuming escalating excel there situation
