Hezbollah units twice crossed into Israeli territory from Lebanon during the last month, the Israeli daily Ha’aretz reported. Israeli defense sources told the paper it was possible the two units unwittingly entered Israel because there is no permanent border fence in the area near Mount Hermon, or they were trying to test Israel’s response and gather information on Israeli army activities.
