In post # 583, I talked about the smoke I could see rising from the northern slope of the hill which houses the Lebanese village of Maroun er Rass.
I mentioned that I couldn't see any damage to the houses on the southern slope or the hill's crest and had no way of knowing what was happening on the northern side.
Since then, as I said, there was a considerable amount of shooting going on here. Apparently, some terrorists tried crossing the border from the direction of Maroun er Rass.
The hill the village is located on is covered with high, dry, grass and weeds which makes infiltration easier.
I just took a walk around (yes, I know that I am under military orders to stay in my house but I was never too good at obeying orders even when I was in the Army) and saw that much of the hill is now on fire.
It looks like the IDF is trying to clear the grass to make it easier to spot infiltrators. The houses that I can see remain untouched and I can only hope that the same is true on the northern slope."
