Israel Air Force planes attacked terrorist targets south of Sidon Monday morning and returned safely to their bases, a military spokesman announced. The attack was the second since Friday and the ninth in Lebanon since the beginning of the year.
It followed the firing of Katyusha rockets into Upper Galilee Sunday and several hostile acts against IDF units in the South Lebanon security zone over the weekend.
The targets were described as buildings which served as terrorist headquarters for planning attacks on Israel and as an arms storage depot.
