Israel again shells south Lebanon

Reports from Lebanon say Israeli forces have again shelled areas of southern Lebanon, just outside the zone occupied by Israel.

The reports say one Lebanese civilian was seriously wounded by shell fragments near the town of Majdal Zun.

Lebanese security sources are quoted as saying that the shelling followed an operation by Hezbollah guerrillas against an Israeli position in the area
