IRANIAN SOLDIERS KILLED IN LEBANON

Report: Iranian Soldiers Killed in Lebanon - Aaron Klein (WorldNetDaily)
Up to nine bodies of Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers who were killed last week in Lebanon have been transported to Syria and flown to Tehran, Israeli and Egyptian security officials confirmed. This follows scores of reports that Iranian soldiers have been aiding Hizballah terrorists in Lebanon in their attacks against Israel, including help with firing rockets into Israeli population centers.

The operation involving the abduction of the Israeli soldiers had been more than a month in the planning, and Tehran dispatched a team of 20 Iranian Guard commanders to southern Lebanon in mid-June to oversee the preparations. Apart from helping Hizballah to carry out the initial attack, the Revolutionary Guard contingent has remained in Lebanon to operate the sophisticated Iranian-made weapons systems being used against Israeli military and civilian targets.
