IDF casts doubt on Liberman’s claim Hezbollah behind Friday’s rocket attack
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe IDF says it is not the source of Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman’s claim that the Hezbollah terrorist group was responsible for last Friday’s rocket attack on the Golan Heights.
At a faction meeting earlier in the day, Liberman said the rocket strikes were not accidental spillover from the fighting in Syria, as most have been, but were deliberate attacks ordered by Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.
However, the IDF has not made the same claim, and unnamed military sources told Hebrew media outlets that this was Liberman’s personal interpretation, not the army’s assessment.
