Israel claims not fighting Lebanese Army, after soldiers killed

Israel's military said Wednesday it was fighting the militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon, not the Lebanese Army, after the latter said four of its soldiers were killed in Israeli strikes.

"We emphasize that the (Israeli army) is operating precisely against the Hezbollah terrorist organization and is not operating against the Lebanon Armed Forces," the military told AFP in a statement.
