Israeli army fires into Lebanon after military targets hit by missiles

The Israeli army has taken action against Lebanon after Iran backed Hezbollah group attacked a military vehicle either killing or injuring the occupants. This is not the first time this dispute has become violent as Lebanon claims that several days before the attack an Israeli drown violating Lebanon's airspace dropped incendiary materials into a forest causing a fire. In an attempt to deescalate the situation the Lebanese prime minister has asked for aid from the US and France, but there has yet to be an official statement from either country. These tensions are nothing new in the area as it has been a hotbed for conflict for the past few decades, it just seems that these are just another phase in this continuing violence.
