The Israeli military on Monday accused Iran of ordering the attacks by Hezbollah at the Israel and Lebanon border on Sunday. Hezbollah is an Iran-backed terrorist group that wields significant power in Lebanon. "Hezbollah carried out a number of shooting attacks in order to distract from our war efforts in the south (Gaza), under Iranian instruction and with (Iranian) support," Reuters quoted Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) Chief Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari as saying.
