"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Two killed as Israel strikes Hezbollah munitions van in Kahhale - Naharnet

A Lebanese security official told AFP that an Israeli strike on a Hezbollah van carrying munitions near Beirut killed the driver Wednesday, the latest death in more than a month of war.

"A van belonging to Hezbollah was targeted in an Israeli strike on the Kahhale road and its driver killed," the official said, adding that the vehicle was carrying munitions.

The official requested anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.

An AFP correspondent saw a vehicle on fire and said the Kahhale road, which links Beirut to Damascus, had been blocked in both directions.

Lebanon's official National News Agency had earlier reported an "enemy drone strike" on a vehicle, and media outlets later updated the death toll to two.

Later on Wednesday, the municipalities of the Christian towns of Araya and Kahhale condemned the transfer of weapons and ammunition through their towns.

Last week, the NNA said an Israeli strike targeting a car on the same highway killed two people.
