Israel confirmed two reservists were wounded in a Hezbollah anti-tank missile attack today from Lebanon on the town of Metula. One is moderately hurt, the other lightly along with an Israeli civilian. Another missile targeted the northern town of Zar'it. This marks at least the 6th missile fired by Hezbollah at northern towns and military posts. The IDF is responding with artillery shelling of southern Lebanon. The attacks come as world leaders head to Israel in a show of solidarity amid ongoing bombardment from Gaza by Hamas. Hezbollah and Hamas seem to be coordinating rocket attacks on Israel from two fronts.
