Israel said to shell southern Lebanese town
Sources in Lebanon say Israel is carrying out heavy shelling in the town of Houla, the Palestinian Quds news site reports.
The reported attack on Houla, which sits less than a kilometer over the border from the Galilee panhandle, comes as much of southern Lebanon is bracing for an Israeli reprisal to a rocket strike on a Golan soccer field that killed 12 kids from the Druze community Saturday.
There is no comment from the military on the reports of shelling in Houla or earlier reports of Israeli strikes elsewhere in southern Lebanon.
