BEIRUT: "Israel's" (so-called) counter-terrorism bureau advised "Israelis" against visiting Arab or Muslim countries for fear of Hizbullah attacks ahead of a Jewish holiday, the "Israeli" Haaretz newspaper reported Monday on its website.

In its travel alert, the bureau said it feared "Hizbullah would target or abduct ‘Israelis' abroad," to avenge the 2008 assassination of Hizbullah top military commander Imad Moghnieh. Hizbullah has blamed Moghnieh's death on "Israel", although the 'Jewish' (Zionist) state has denied any involvement in the incident.

However, the "Israeli" daily Yediot Aharonot reported last month that Moghnieh's assassins were "Israelis" who infiltrated from "Kurdistan" into Syria.

Meanwhile, a number of "Israeli" tanks have been deployed in the vicinity of the southern town of Kfarshouba as reconnaissance flights violated Lebanon's airspace over the occupied Shibaa Farms, the National News Agency (NNA) reported Monday. The Merkava tanks were spotted in the afternoon on the environs of al-Alam, Rmatta and Summaqa, facing Kfarshouba.
