Palestinians Falsely Claim Shelling Near Nabariyeh
The Associated Press reports Palestinians in Beirut claimed they shelled Israeli troop emplacements at Kfar Yuval near Nahariya, but Israeli sources deny any Sunday incidents. Residents of Kfar Yuval say no attacks occurred. A guerrilla spokesman in Beirut alleged heavy Israeli casualties and damage, tying the claim to Saturday’s shelling of southern Lebanon towns. Separately, Israel announced a mobilization of reservists and motorized units, with pamphlets dropped by airplanes, marking a second callup in two months.
