Summary of IDF operations against Hizbullah in Lebanon 3 Aug 2006
(Communicated by IDF Spokesman)
Over the past day, IDF infantry, armored and engineering forces operated in southern Lebanon. The forces positioned themselves in the areas of Mis el Jabal, Mahibab Blida, Shihin, Rajmil and Majdal Zun, in the eastern part of southern Lebanon. At the same time, IDF forces established positions in the villages of Al Teibeh, Al Adeisa, Rab A-Tiltin, Aita a-Sha’ab and Maroun A-Ras and Bint Jbeil.
Yesterday evening an IDF soldier was killed and four more were wounded in exchanges of fire in the village of Aita A-Sha’ab. An IDF soldier was severely wounded and two soldiers were lightly wounded in the village of Mahbib.
In fighting throughout the day, IDF forces killed approximately 35 armed Hizbullah terrorists, and wounded numerous other Hizbullah terrorists.
In the area of Bint Jbeil, IDF forces identified and destroyed a vehicle carrying a Hizbullah missile launcher. Additional weapons were discovered by the force, including 10 assault rifles in the area around the village of Sheihin.
During the night the IDF carried out more than 120 aerial attacks in Lebanon:
6 missile launchers, including launchers used for long-range attacks against Afula and Haifa.
35 Hizbullah buildings, storage facilities and headquarters
Areas used to launch rocket into Israel, and roads and bridges leading to those areas.
A vehicle identified transporting weapons.
That is because FR is on top of things!
If that was an advanced missile headed toward Tel Aviv...they have to check it for WMD payloads, etc. No need to tell people who will all head out there to check it out.
CNN says three rockets landed in Hadera....
no further info.

I dunno, that' what I always do when I want to view an animated GIF that I've downloaded. Not sure why IE blocked the content, and I don't have time to get into it. If you do a google search on "Internet Explorer Content Blocked" you might find an answer. I'm familiar with Outlook blocking content, but IE not so much.
Mostly used in the aircraft industry. Expecially the new fighters and bombers. Probably a lot in the commercial craft as well.
See post 713. In response to your good point, it nows seems possible that hez. missile intercepted.
