Today, Friday, the border area between Lebanon and Israel witnessed a military alert after tension broke out between the people of the Lebanese village of Kfar Shuba and the Israeli army, which began construction work in the area.
The Lebanese army said that its units are "deploying in the border area in Kfar Shuba, facing the Israeli army," on Lebanon's southern border with Israel.
According to "Sky News" sources, members of the Lebanese army took combat positions to prevent any attempt by the Israeli army to advance toward Lebanese territory.
Units of the Israeli army had fired tear gas at a number of Lebanese, who had removed barbed wire placed by the Israelis in the past hours.
A spokesman for the Israeli army said, "Clashes broke out a short while ago in the Jabal Ross area on the Lebanese border, where some rioters tried to smuggle the security barrier and threw stones at a military force that was operating there."
He added, "The Israeli forces responded using means to disperse the demonstrations."
