According to National News Agency (NNA) field correspondent in Nabatiyeh, "Israeli" warplanes violated Lebanese airspace, where they staged at 10:30 am today mock raids at a medium altitude, over Nabitiyeh, Marjeioun, and Khiyam villages in the South.

Separately, NNA field correspondent in Sidon stated that "Israeli" warplanes breached Sidon and Iklim Touffah regions airspace at a medium altitude.

"Israeli" warplanes also flew over Eastern sector, especially over Al-Arkoub, Marjeioun, Hasbaya, and occupied Shebaa farms.

Earlier, Army Command Orientation Directorate issued a statement stating that at 20:15 Tuesday night, an "Israeli" reconnaissance warplane violated the Lebanese airspace over Yaroun village and executed circular flights over the south then left Wednesday dawn at 3:00 over Naqoura village towards the occupied territories.


In addition, "Israeli" occupation army fired seven artillery shells at the Wadi Slouki region, near the town of Houla in south Lebanon. 


News agencies reported a Katyusha rocket had been fired earlier from the same bombed region targeting an open area in the "Israeli" settlement of Keryat Shmona without causing injuries.

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the Katyusha launch. UNIFL troops and the Lebanese army cut off the road leading to Hula and were searching the area. According to "Israeli" media outlets, "Israeli" security sources estimate that the rocket was not fired by Hizbullah, but rather by a small Palestinian organization.


Haaretz quoted an "Israeli" occupation army spokesman as saying that the military holds Lebanon responsibility for the Katyusha launch.

Just hours before the incident, "Israeli" War Minister Ehud Barak warned during a tour in the northern occupied region, that "Israel" was preparing itself for a possible new confrontation with Lebanon. "We have nine years of quiet in the north that were interrupted for a number of painful weeks for the Second Lebanon War," the war minister said. "We are preparing for all other possibilities, including the possibility that they will subject the towns of the north to another test." 


"Israel" has been continuously violating the UN resolution 1701 through conducting different violations in the Lebanese territories, airspace and waters.
