Israel, Lebanon Exchange Gunfire on Northern Border
(Jerusalem Post) Lahav Harkov - One Lebanese soldier was reportedly wounded Monday in an exchange of gunfire between the IDF and Lebanese Army. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu later told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, "The soldiers behaved like they were supposed to. They are determined to defend themselves and the border." He added, "[Palestinian President] Abbas made a strategic decision to go to the UN. He wants to get things done without a peace agreement....No Israeli government can accept all Palestinian demands. We are interacting with the U.S. to put together a document on a possible peace agreement using language from Obama's speech to AIPAC."
