Israel attacks Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon

The attacks came after Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah vowed revenge on Israel. The group accuses Israel of planning a two-day, brazen attack in Lebanon that blew up Hezbollah pagers and handheld radios, killing more than 30 people and seriously wounding thousands. Israel has not commented on the incident.

The Israel Defense Forces said the attack hit more than 100 Hezbollah rocket launch sites and an ammunition depot.

Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib warned that the “blatant attack on Lebanon's sovereignty and security” was a dangerous precedent that could be “the sign of a larger” impending war between Israel and Hezbollah.
