Israeli Army Removes Lebanese Flag Lifted on Barbed Wire
An Israeli infantry unit combed Wednesday the heights of Jabal Sadana and removed a Lebanese flag hoisted the day before on a barbed wire fence, which was newly erected by Israel.
The state-run National News Agency reported that the flag, which was lifted by Development and Liberation parliamentary bloc MP Qassem Hashem and Shebaa town residents, was removed by an Israeli army unit accompanied by an armored vehicle.
NNA said sounds of explosions and heavy gunfire was heard in the eastern part of the occupied Shabaa Farms.
An Israeli surveillance drone was also flying over Mount Hermon (Jabal el-Sheikh) Heights and the adjacent al-Arqoub villages.
Hashem and the demonstrators had reached the area to protest the works carried out by the Israeli army and the installation of a new fence.
