Some Lebanese outlets claimed Israeli fighter jets had crossed over Lebanese airspace en route to Syria.

An Israeli army spokeswoman refused to comment on whether the IDF was responsible for the explosions, Reuters reported.

Remember to abbreviate articles you post to 3 paragraphs. After the snafu last weekend, I'm not taking action but the main moderators probably agree that your posting the ENTIRE article is not suppose to be done.
