As cross border clashes continue on into the early hours of the morning on Tuesday, fires flared in the forests adjacent to Litani River, near Marjayoun, resulting from intense Israeli phosphorous shelling.

The Lebanese Civil Defense teams and “Al-Risalah” scouts worked on extinguishing the fires that raged throughout the night.

Also at dawn on Tuesday, the Israeli army opened heavy machine gunfire towards the forests adjacent to Ramiya, Aita al-Shaab, Naqoura and Alma al-Shaab. The Israeli army also launched flares throughout the night, over border villages adjacent to the Blue Line, in the western and central sectors.

For their part, Hezbollah stated “shelling Kiryat Shmona with dozens of Falak and Katyusha rockets in response to the Israeli air raid on Bint Jbeil on Monday.”
