Rare show of solidarity across the border
Tel Aviv | The red, white and cedar green colours of the Lebanese flag were lit up over a Tel Aviv square in a rare show of Israeli solidarity with Beirut.
Israel has been in a technical state of war with Lebanon for generations, and it deems the country's armed Shi'ite Muslim group Hezbollah, backed by Iran, the biggest threat across its northern border. Israel and Hezbollah fought a month-long war in 2006 and have traded fire again in recent weeks.
