Concerns in Israel mount over Hezbollah, Lebanese army cooperate

Israeli concerns are mounting over the possibility of the Lebanese army and Hezbollah operatives cooperating against Israel, The Jerusalem Post reported.
In the incident in question, soldiers opened fire on men they identified crossing the border, hitting one of them. The men then fled back into Lebanese territory.
“Hezbollah’s confidence is growing, along with its combat experience in Syria,” the post quoted an Israeli officer as saying.
“The battlegrounds of Syria have enabled Hezbollah to upgrade its capabilities. Hezbollah plans to send many combatants into Israeli territory near the border and seize it.”
This has prompted Israel to make “dramatic changes” to its border-defense plans, he added.
