Israel Warns Lebanon to Close Down Hizbullah Rocket Factories
(Times of Israel) Israel has sent a message to the Lebanese government via Paris demanding that it act against Hizbullah's rocket factories in the country, saying if Lebanon refused to do so, Israel could take military action, Israel's Channel 10 reported. Israel's deputy national security adviser Eitan Ben-David said Israel would be patient, and was willing to wait to see if Lebanon took steps against the factories, but said it would not allow their construction to continue undisturbed. Lebanon "is becoming a factory for precision-guided missiles that threaten Israel. These missiles pose a grave threat to Israel, and we cannot accept this threat," Prime Minister Netanyahu said in January.
