New footage shows Hezbollah evacuating illegal arms from Lebanon blast site, IDF says
Israeli drone video apparently shows militants removing missiles from south Lebanon village after huge explosion on Friday.
By Anshel Pfeffer

The army on Sunday released video footage of an explosion that tore through a building in southern Lebanon on Friday – with pictures apparently showing rockets and weapons stored by Hezbollah militants in contravention of a United Nations resolution. The new Israel Defense Forces film, shot from an unmanned drone aircraft ,shows the aftermath of the blast, which ripped through a three-story building on in the Shi'ite Muslim village of Shehabiyeh Friday lunchtime, wounding at least five. Israeli intelligence officers have long seen the village, which lies south of the River Litani, as a nerve center for Hezbollah operations and the building destroyed by the explosion is believed to belong to the armed group, which fought a month-long war with Israel in 2006.

The IDF should have sent a few missiles into that house and taken out those weapons. Israel could always say it was a "work accident".

I'm surprised they didn't!

Well, it was in Lebanon. I guess they were probably afraid it might set off a war or something if they did strike. But it would have been nice had they hit it and destroyed the weapons. Apparently there was enough weapons in there for Hezbollah to send people back in there to get them. There's no telling how many other houses they have full of weapons.

Well they HAVE said they are fully stocked and prepared for the next war!
