Israeli Occupation Forces Establish Two Crossing Points in Southern Lebanon

Al-Manar correspondent in southern Lebanon reported on Wednesday that Israeli occupation forces established two crossing points, some 15 kms south of the coastal city of Tyre.

Israeli enemy forces established two crossing points, the first in Iskandarouna road, while the second near Reve De La Mer Hotel in Naqoura, our correspondent Samer Al-Hajj Ali reported.

The hostile measures by the Israeli occupation army aim at securing its soldiers as they come under daily threats, as well as at restricting the freedom of movement of UNIFIL forces, according to Al-Manar reporter.

Meanwhile, Al-Hajj Ali denied reports that occupation forces had installed similar gates along the line separating between what is known as the “yellow zone” and the villages outside it.

The reporter denied such reports, which circulated on Wednesday morning, citing security sources familiar with the matter.

Our correspondent also noted that Israeli forces had previously severed, partially or completely, many of the roads linking southern villages with those which are occupied by both airstrikes and bulldozing operations.
