The Israeli government decided to stage open-ended operations in Lebanon after Hizbollah fighters crossed the international border on Wednesday, ambushed a patrol, took two soldiers captive and disabled a tank that entered Lebanon in pursuit. Eight Israelis were killed. The two captives were named as Ehud Goldwasser, 31, and Eldad Regev, 26.
The attack followed a similarly audacious raid last month by Hamas, which dug a tunnel under Gaza's border fence and attacked an Israeli base from the rear, killing two soldiers and taking one, Gilad Shalit, 19, hostage.
