Beirut, Oct 20 (SocialNews.XYZ) Three Lebanese soldiers were killed on Sunday afternoon when the Israeli army targeted a vehicle in the central sector of the border area in southern Lebanon, according to a statement by the Lebanese army command.
"The Israeli enemy targeted an army vehicle on the Ain Ebel-Hanine road in the south, which led to the death of three Lebanese soldiers," said the army command.
Lebanese military sources, who spoke anonymously, told Xinhua news agency that an Israeli force fired a direct rocket shell at the vehicle.
