Israel has fired 75 shells during a military exercise into the occupied Lebanese territory of Sheba'a Farms, which Tel-Aviv claims are located in the occupied Syrian Jolan area ('Golan Heights').No injuries or damage were reported after the shelling on Tuesday.Israel annexed the area on December 14, 1981.Meanwhile, Lebanese officials said on Tuesday that Israeli warplanes dropped an “unidentified object” near the towns of Houla and Tallouse in the south of the country.Also on Tuesday, the Lebanese army issued a statement saying that eight Israeli military aircraft violated the country's airspace over the village of Kfar Kila in the south.Israel violates Lebanon's airspace on an almost daily basis.In 2009, Lebanon filed a complaint with the United Nations, presenting over 7,000 documents pertaining to Israeli violation of Lebanese territory.UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which brokered a ceasefire in the war Israel launched against Lebanon in 2006, calls on Tel Aviv to respect Beirut's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
