Israel air force jets struck Wednesday at the southern Lebanon terrorist bases of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, a pro-Syrian group headed by Ahmed Jabril.
According to a military spokesman, the targets at Nueimeh, 12 miles south of Beirut, were installations they had been used to launch attacks on Israel.
The raid was Israel’s 13th air strike in Lebanon this year.
