Israel stages ground incursion into south Lebanon border zone: Lebanese army source

Israeli forces advanced into a border area in Lebanese territory on Tuesday, a Lebanese army source told AFP, shortly after the Israeli defense minister instructed his troops to "take control of additional strategic positions in Lebanon."

"Israeli ground forces advanced from Kfarkela and the Khiam plains," along the Lebanon-Israel border, the source said, requesting anonymity and expressing concern over "Israel's attempt to establish a broad security belt in south Lebanon."
