Northern Israeli farmers advised to stay clear of borders

The IDF Northern Command Wednesday advised farmers to postone work in fields near the border in case of Hizballah attempts to abduct Israelis or target them for sniper fire.  Soldiers on duty in the border region were ordered to wear helmets and body armor. The advisory came after three rockets were fired from Lebanon into Western Galilee shortly after an Israeli airborne missile strike was reported to have killed the Hizballah terrorist Samir Quntar Sunday in Damascus.
