ISRAEL MUST BE STOPPED NOW !, page-10920

Rubbish!

The White House on Sunday declared Hezbollah responsible for a deadly rocket attack on Saturday that killed 12 children in the Druze town of Majdal Shams, as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu convened the security cabinet to discuss Israel’s reaction to the attack.

“It was their rocket, and launched from an area they control,” National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in a statement, adding that the Hezbollah attack should be “universally condemned.”

“Our support for Israel’s security is ironclad and unwavering against all Iran-backed threats, including Hezbollah,” she noted, adding that the Iran-backed terror group “started firing at Israel on October 8, claiming solidarity with Hamas, another terror organization in Iran’s so-called ‘Axis of Resistance.'”

As thousands of residents of the northern Druze village gathered for the funerals of 10 of the 12 children believed to have been killed in the rocket strike, the Israel Defense Forces released evidence showing shrapnel found at the soccer field matching an Iranian-made Falaq-1 rocket, which in Lebanon is exclusively used by Hezbollah.

The Iranian-made Falaq-1 has a 50-kilogram warhead and a range of 10 kilometers, according to the IDF.

Hezbollah said on Saturday that it had launched a Falaq rocket at an IDF base near Majdal Shams, though once reports emerged of civilian casualties in the northern town, the terror group changed course and denied its involvement.
