Israeli warplanes attacked a target on the Lebanese-Syrian border overnight Tuesday, foreign media reported on Wednesday. While some reports said the purported strike was carried out on the Syrian side of the border, according to one source the target was a weapons convoy that had crossed from Syria into Lebanon.

The reports come amid rising concern in Israel and the West regarding the sizable chemical weapons stockpile in the hands of an increasingly embattled Syrian regime.

Lebanese officials said a dozen Israeli warplanes violated Lebanese airspace on Tuesday and overnight into Wednesday, flying close to the ground in several sorties over southern Lebanon.

The Israeli military and the Prime Minister’s Office had no comment.

Israel [...] has said on several occasions that the transfer of chemical weapons to non-state actors, especially Hezbollah, would be a casus belli.

I’m sure it was a convoy of baby milk.

You would think people would learn by now that Israel knows not only what you are doing,but they have already decided the time place and means in which you will die.... Before this convoy ever left its departure point the Israeli air force had already flown the sorties on simulators a dozen different ways.

Debka is reporting that Israeli warplanes carried out overnight sorties against missile and arms convoys standing ready in southern Syria for transfer to Hezbollah.
