LABBOUNEH: Hezbollah targeted Israeli soldiers near the Lebanese border village of Labbouneh with artillery shells and rockets on Wednesday, the group said in a statement, a day after Israel said it had killed two successors to Hezbollah's slain leader.

sraeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has canceled a Wednesday visit to the Pentagon, the Pentagon said, as Israeli media reported Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted first to speak with US President Joe Biden.

The Pentagon declined to say why Gallant canceled his visit, and referred reporters to Israel's ministry of defense. Offices for Netanyahu and Gallant did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

"We were just informed that Minister Gallant will be postponing his trip to Washington," Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh told a news briefing.
