Hezbollah militants killed near Lebanon-Israel border

A Hezbollah spokesperson says the Lebanese Red Cross has collected the remains of four of the group's militants.

An AP photojournalist saw three body bags and a bag of remains transferred from the Lebanese Red Cross to Hezbollah's Islamic Health Unit at Hiram Hospital, which is near southern Lebanon's city of Tyre.

The spokesperson said the bodies belonged to militants who were pronounced dead Tuesday. He did not say how they died.

The Israeli military said Tuesday that its forces killed four militants who were allegedly carrying an explosive device and were suspected of attempting a cross-border operation. (AP)
