Israeli troops kill two and wound 17 in southern Lebanon

ISRAELI troops have killed two people and wounded 17 in southern Lebanon during protests against their continued occupation of the area.

Monday’s killings occurred the day after 24 people died and more than 130 wounded when Israeli soldiers opened fire on protesters who had breached roadblocks set up along the border.

Under the terms of a US-brokered ceasefire that took effect on November 27, Israeli forces were supposed to withdraw from southern Lebanon, while Hezbollah resistance fighters were to move north of the Litani river by Sunday.
