An Israeli soldier was killed in gun clashes across the border with Lebanon, Israeli military official said on Tuesday. The soldier was reportedly killed in an attack on a border patrol by the Lebanese militants Hezbollah near the town of Metulla on Monday - a charge that the group then denied. The soldier was the first Israeli casualty on the northern border since August this year. Early on Tuesday a Lebanese boy was killed when a missile fell on his house - possibly falling short of a target in Israel. The incidents come after tensions in the region heightened due to Israeli attacks against an alleged Palestinian militant camp in Syria in response to Saturday's suicide bomb attack in Haifa, which left 19 dead.
