Israeli Army Unit Crosses Technical Fence in al-Wazzani
Israeli troops on Wednesday crossed the barbed wire in al-Wazzani hills and entered into an area that the Lebanese Army has expressed reservations over, the National News Agency reported.
NNA said the 11-member Israeli unit crossed the technical fence and marched 10 to 15 meters into the disputed area at around 8:00 am.
The technical fence is not the Blue Line, which is the U.N.-mapped border.
In a related development, an Israeli bulldozer erected earth mounds near a gate that it set up a month ago off al-Wazzani hills, NNA said.
The Lebanese Army and U.N. peacekeepers went on alert in the area, the agency added.
