Netanyahu Says Hizbullah Has Missile Sites near Beirut Airport

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday claimed that Hizbullah has positioned three missile sites near Beirut's Rafik Hariri International Airport.

During his address before the U.N. General Assembly, Netanyahu also held up what he called "a picture worth a thousand missiles" and titled "Beirut Precision Guided Missile."

Israeli army spokesman Avichai Adrai meanwhile published pictures of the alleged sites on Twitter.

He said the sites include the football stadium of the Hizbullah-affiliated al-Ahed club, another site near the airport and the Ouzai fishermen's harbor.
