Israeli soldier shot and killed along the border with Lebanon

[EmperorScorpious]

[quote](CNN) -- An Israeli soldier was killed Sunday in a shooting incident along the Israel-Lebanon border, according to the Israel Defense Forces.

The soldier was treated at the scene, then evacuated to a hospital. He later died of his wounds.

Earlier Sunday, a spokesman for the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, or UNIFIL, had said that a "serious shooting incident" was taking place along the Israel-Lebanon border.

It was not immediately clear who was shooting at whom, Andrea Treneti said then. Commanders from both sides were talking to the head of the UNIFIL mission to establish what happened.

"We are urging restraint," the spokesman said.

I love how nowhere in the western media does it state what is being said by Arab media. The Israeli patrol apparently violated the border to 'chase a terrorist who had escaped into Lebanon'. If this iis true then it doesn't justify the killing but it just goes to show what little respect Israel has for Lebanese sovereignty. It's not the first time they've infiltrated the border.

Its not a real suprise, of course the editors are going to cherrypick the facts depending on the organization/company they work for.

The soldier who was shot was alone, driving a civilian vehicle along the border. How could he be "chasing terrorists"?
