Machinegun rounds, flares and percussion bombs were fired from the Syrian side of the border towards the stream of the Grand River on Wednesday, some of which landing in the northern Lebanese town of Bani Sakhr in al-Bqaiaa region, Lebanon’s state-run National News Agency reported.
“Machinegun volleys struck several homes, causing no casualties, as a bomb landed in a grove,” NNA quoted residents as saying."
The residents of several houses located near the Grand River, which separates the two countries, fled towards the safer houses of their relatives in the nearby areas of Wadi Khaled and Mashta Hammoud, the agency said.
Meanwhile, MTV reported that “the General Security checkpoint in Wadi Khaled was targeted by Syrian anti-aircraft gunfire,” and that residents were urging the Lebanese army to “protect them.”
Separately, Lebanese Red Cross ambulances transported five wounded Syrians to the state-run hospital in the northern city of Tripoli, after they entered Lebanon via its northeastern border.

Isn't this an act of war? We're getting targeted by Assad. I'd like to see the Hizzies hit back the the army currently bombing Lebanon. They claim to be here to defend Lebanon? PROVE IT!

the army is busy arresting a 57 year old doctor who is a collector of old guns, undressing him, humiliating him, and stripping him off any human dignity!

Thefool.
Wish you were right.
You are talking about a useless army who spent 22 out of 25 years of wars in its bases ,earning a tippled retirement compensation as the country was in war.
Everybody was involved in the lebanese war except the useless lebanese army.
Better than this all is when u have a problem with a useless soldier that belongs to the useless lebanese army you would be insulted abused and then told to respect the uniform as if the uniform of this useless army values more then those of a policemen ,nurse, firefighters etc etc
Nothing against you thefool.
