Shells fired from southern Lebanon landed inside northern Israel Thursday, moderately wounding an Israeli citizen. Initial reports suggested that the shells might have been targeted at Israeli army positions along the border. Earlier in the day, a salvo directed at Israel Defense Force positions also landed near the northern border, but did not cause any damage or injuries. Ongoing hostilities between the IDF and Hezbollah have heated up in the past month.
