The assault on Arnoun came less than a week after Israeli warplanes killed seven civilians in a raid on suspected Hizbollah guerrilla targets, which prompted the pro-Iranian group to fire a barrage of Katyusha rockets at northern Israel.Under an April 1996 ceasefire agreement, Israel and the guerrillas are barred from attacking civilian targets.
