An IDF observation post in the border area in the Golan Heights reported detecting small arms firing from the Syrian side of the border at an open area in Israel. No injuries or damage were reported.
A complaint was lodged with the United Nations. The army is checking whether fire had indeed been directed at Israel.
Meanwhile, Al-Arabiya TV reported that at least 20 Hezbollah fighters were killed in battles in the Syrian rebel-held town of Qusair. Their bodies were transported to hospitals in Beirut. One of those killed was senior Hezbollah official Fadi al-Jazar.
According to the report, al-Jazar had previously been held in Israel and released as part of a prisoner exchange deal. In addition, 62 wounded, many of them Hezbollah combatants, were taken to hospitals in Lebanon.

On Sunday, Syrian troops aided by Hezbollah launched a massive assault on the rebel-held city near the Lebanese border.
Speaking from Qusair, activist Hadi Abdallah said Syrian warplanes bombed Qusair in the morning and shells were hitting the town at a rate of up to 50 a minute. At least 52 people were killed, he said.
“The army is hitting Qusair with tanks and artillery from the north and east while Hezbollah is firing mortar rounds and multiple rocket launchers from the south and west,” he said.
“Most of the dead are civilians killed by the shelling.”
The region near the Orontos River has been segregated into Sunni and Shiite villages in the civil war that grew out of protests against Syrian President Bashar Assad.
It is vital for Assad, who belongs to the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam, to keep open a route from Shiite Hezbollah’s strongholds in the Bekaa to areas near Syria’s Mediterranean coast inhabited by co-religionist Alawites.

Well if you want peace thats the price a very small price too,And my advice is to tell your government to take it because if you dont western support will wear very thin,just think wake up in the morning to smiling arabs no mores missile attacks no more suicide bombers,and a damaged iran all on its own,But its up to you people the Israelis you owe it to yourselves and the Israeli arabs.Think about it,you really should you would be free of the burden that the troubles have brought

Joop….
The one thing I ask of people commenting here is that they refrain from attacking each other for their views. I do my best to ensure that hate speech and psychotic comments are eliminated. Beyond that, the free flow of all ideas serves us all.
FYI Justice has been and continues to be one of the top commenters on this site for the last year, at least.
I really enjoy your comments. Please continue and don’t be put off by comments that don’t make sense to you.
Cheers!

you know joop i understand why the word peace is such a hard thing to accept,after 50 years of war,and we know who renbe is,because of renbe we have all listened to the other side of the argument at times we have felt like renbe was the antichrist,but his words have changed even renbe realizes that there is some hope,we have all said some very unpleasant stuff to renbe in the past,we all agree that we were wrong,as renbe may work for our enemy’s,BUT HE IS NO BAD GUY,and deserves to have his say,he has never offended anyone here other than what he posts is sometimes contradictory our opinions,which leaves me with you JOOP warning do not upsett me or there will be serious repercussions for you in your country,and lay off JW because he is a very close friend of mine

May 21, 2013 at 1:41 AM
Nope i do not go whit your program and whit upsetting you, i will wait for a comment of MR Wouk about your threat,
FACT
sins the San Remo Conference, April 24, 1920.
Israel lost again and again land for peace and you think whit obama, erdogan and the oic in the un it will be different today, and not to forget the complete changed opinion in the eu about Israel trough indoctrination by the left msm whits false statements and news about Israel up till today, .you must be from that half Islamic island england, the fuck uppers in the middle east, from german barb wire to british barb wire !
And of course obama and his administration is a trustworthy bunch of friends of Israel, yep
jolly good old chap !
but it is not cricket.
Pull somebody else on his leg, but not me !!
Or in good USA slang, do not piss on my head and tell me that it is raining .
May 21, 2013 at 3:59 PM
No ones listening to you
May 20, 2013 at 11:13 PM
Justice, land for peace has only brought Iranian proxy armies to Israel’s door step in the form of Hezbollah and Hamas. What makes you think it would be any different if Israel gave up more land? Especially with Fatah and Hamas merger talks?
May 21, 2013 at 3:58 PM
The deal is going to be imposed,Both sides will cede land it doesn’t look like Israel or the Palestinians will have a choice America will lean on Israel the GCC will lean on the Palestinians,People like joop are the problem not the solution,Hamas is not to be included that will be dealt with military action,although the chances of this happening now are very slim as its looking like Israel has just inadvertently started WW 111,is Syria Israel and Palestine worth ww111 NO,What do i think we should do now,what is the consensus in NATO,you would love to know ,its all bad,if i were Bibi i would stop pissing round and act now,as israel may find itself in real trouble very soon
May 21, 2013 at 5:08 PM
“i were Bibi i would stop pissing round and act now,as israel may find itself in real trouble very soon”
Agreed!
For Israel, playing the waiting game is playing the losing game…
