Signs that Israel’s attacks on Gaza are bringing action from its north
Israel’s naval base near the Lebanese town of Naqourah has been hit by four surface to surface missiles in the last few minutes, according to an Al Jazeera reporter – with the Israeli military’s anti-missile systems not seeing the missiles coming.
Amid reports emerge of moves at the UN to create an Arab-led peacekeeping force to intervene in Gaza and Yemen’s declaration of war, Bahrain’s expulsion of Israel’s ambassador – and Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah scheduled to make a public statement tomorrow – the missile attack looks like a sign that Israel’s refusal to cease its genocidal bombing of Gazan civilians is leading it into trouble on its northern border, despite Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s attempt to bluster and threaten Hezbollah into standing by while Israel slaughters Gazans.
