IDF use flaming arrows and homemade Molotov cocktail launcher on Lebanon border

The IDF are using flaming arrows and homemade Molotov cocktail launchers against Hezbollah on the Lebanon border. Video shows an archer firing an arrow over a concrete wall. And soldiers testing their improvised Molotov mortar tube. It comes a day after they were filmed using a trebuchet. The tactic is used to burn foliage close to the border, which Hezbollah terrorists use to provide cover for attacks on Israel. IDF doctrine forbids soldiers from using artillery to clear the foliage away, so soldiers have become creative. Tensions are running high between Israel and Hezbollah amid the ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza. Hezbollah regularly launches rockets into Israel, with the Israeli Air Force carrying out airstrike in return. Hamas and Hezbollah are allied via Iran, and there are fears that skirmishes between Israel and Hezbollah could spark a second front in the war. #israel #hamas #war Daily Mail Homepage: Daily Mail Facebook: Dai
