Israeli interventions. The usual. This was from August but interference is probably continuing. 'Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri said two Israeli drones, which crashed in a suburb of Beirut dominated by the Iranian-backed Hizbollah, were designed to stir up regional tensions. One drone fell and a second exploded before dawn and caused some damage to Hizbollah's media centre in the southern Dahiyeh suburbs, a Hizbollah official told Reuters, in the first such incident since the two sides waged war in 2006. "The new aggression... constitutes a threat to regional stability and an attempt to push the situation towards further tension," Mr Hariri said in a statement from his office.' /..
