Israeli army opens fire, nabs fisherman as southerners march to their towns
Residents of southern border villages have organized so-called return marches for the second consecutive Sunday, flocking since early morning to the western entrance of Mays al-Jabal and Houla and demanding to enter them accompanied by the Lebanese Army.
No casualties were reported although the Israeli army opened fire at returnees in Yaroun as a drone dropped a stun grenade. Israeli attacks against returning residents and supporters had killed 24 people and wounded 134 others last Sunday.
Residents of Kfar Kila also flocked to the passage separating it from Deir Mimas to demand its liberation and entry into it, despite the fact that the Israeli army carried out a large detonation in the town of more than 10 houses.
Aitaroun was meanwhile liberated as the Israeli army withdrew from it and the Lebanese Army entered it, followed by residents, although Israeli forces were still on its outskirts.
The marches also reached Maroun al-Ras defying the Israeli army and participants raised flags on trees, which prompted the Israeli army to shoot in the air.
A number of Adaisseh residents meanwhile gathered at the entrance of the town despite gunfire from the Israeli forces.
A Lebanese fisherman from the Jahir family was meanwhile arrested by an Israeli enemy boat at the Ras al-Naqoura point, where he and his brother were fishing. His brother was eventually freed.
