Golan Heights on edge after cross-border attacks

2015-01-30 8

Tension is running high along the border between Israel and its northern neighbours. Wednesday's Hezbollah attack, which killed two Israeli soldiers, comes after a strike attributed to Israeli forces, which killed six members of the Hezbollah militia and six members of Iran's Revolutionary Guards. In an unusual step, both sides say they're uninterested in further escalation. However, the locals FRANCE 24 met in the area say tensions remain at breaking point.
