IDF soldiers taking apart Hezbollah tunnels on Israel's northern border opened fire early Saturday afternoon at three suspicious figures who approached them from the Lebanese side of the border.
The three – believed to have been Hezbollah operatives – ran away.
The IDF Spokesman said that the three men had been trying to take advantage of the weather conditions to approach the IDF force, and that the soldiers fired warning shots. Work on dismantling the tunnels continued undisturbed.
A news service that is identified with Hezbollah reported that IDF soldiers fired warning shots in the air but claimed that the men who were fired at were from the Lebanese Army's intelligence corps.
