US military delegation inspects South Litani area
A U.S. military delegation accompanied by a Lebanese Army force on Thursday inspected the al-Dabesh area on the southeastern outskirts of the southern town of Yohmor al-Shaqif, which was targeted by Israeli airstrikes and artillery shelling over the past two weeks, the state-run National News Agency reported.
The delegation also toured many areas in south Lebanon, NNA added.
Al-Akhbar newspaper said the U.S. team started its tour of the South Litani area from the strategic valley of Wadi al-Hujeir, accompanied by Lebanese troops.
A UNIFIL force from the French contingent also “carried out patrols in search of Hezbollah facilities in the forests of Wadi al-Hujeir,” Al-Akhbar said.
