JERUSALEM (Reuters) - An Israeli soldier exchanged fire with a Hizbollah gunman on the Israel-Lebanon border on Tuesday but there was no report of casualties, an Israeli army spokeswoman said.
She said a soldier positioned at Rosh Haniqra, an Israeli town on the western edge of the frontier, was fired on by the Hizbollah gunman and shot back.
Attacks by Hizbollah, a Shi'ite guerrilla group, helped end Israel's 22-year occupation of southern Lebanon in 2000.
