Israel threatening to go beyond southern Lebanon - next step of 'A
Clean Break' coming soon?: Hezbollah seizes Israel soldiers http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/h...st/5171616.stm The Lebanese Shia militant group Hezbollah has captured two Israeli soldiers during clashes across the Lebanese-Israeli border. There has been heavy fighting in area with Hezbollah firing dozens of rockets and Israel responding with tank and artillery fire and air strikes. Aircraft struck roads, bridges and guerrilla posts, Lebanese sources say, and there are reports of casualties. Israel's PM said anyone trying to test its resolve would "pay a heavy price". Hezbollah launched dozens of Katyusha rockets and mortar bombs at the Israeli town of Shlomi and at Israeli outposts in the disputed Shebaa Farms area. At least four Israelis were wounded in the clashes, reports say. The news comes as a major Israeli offensive is under way in Gaza. An Israeli soldier was kidnapped by Palestinian militants in Israel over two weeks ago. Captured Announcement of the soldiers' capture was made on Hezbollah's television channel, al-Manar. It did not give many details about the capture operation, but the news anchor said more information would be released later. The group says it has captured the soldiers to secure the release of detainees held in Israeli prisons. "This operation has taken place as a kind of materialisation to the promise that Hezbollah has kept to the Lebanese, that they are going to do everything possible to make the swap," the chief news editor of Hezbollah Television, Ibrahim Moussawi, told the BBC's World TV. "[That is] because Israelis still occupy parts of Lebanon, and still hold hostages in their prisons. Some of them have been there more than 25 years." Hezbollah captured three Israeli soldiers in 2000 - they died during the operation, but their bodies were later exchanged for prisoners. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has called a special cabinet session later on Wednesday.
