Confusion in the Israeli army at Shebaa farms

Commander of the northern district in the Israeli army said that his army officers and soldiers in the northern district especially in Shebaa, in the occupied part of South Lebanon, suffer a state of confusion because of their inability to face members of the Lebanese national resistance and of being not restricted to military instructions and order.

The Hebrew- language Israeli radio quoted a report prepared by Gen. Ghabi Ishkinazi concerning the killing of one Israeli army officer in the Lebanese district of Shebaa two weeks ago in an operation carried out by the Lebanese national resistance said that members and officers of the patrol who were exposed to the launched missile did not react according to the set instructions and showed weakness and great confusion when they were exposed to the fire.

He added that positions for the Israeli army in Hardouv area, near Shebaa opened fire against Matoula settlement when they heard fire launching at the Israeli military vehicle whose leader was killed and three of its members were seriously wounded.
