Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu says those responsible for a deadly attack on an Iraeli military convoy1 would pay their price for their actions. Israel says 2 of its soldiers were killed and 7 injuried in the attack carried out by Hezbollah.
Whoever's behind today's attack will pay the full price. For some time, Iran via Hezbollah has been trying to establish an additional terrorist front against us from the Golan Heights. The Lebanese government and the Assad regiem share responsibility for the consequences of the attacks disseminating2 from their territories against the state of Israel. Israel responded by firing shells into southern Lebanon. The UN security council is convening3 now to discuss the violence.
The family of a Jordanian fighter pilot held hostage by IS group is intensifying4 its pressure on the government of Jordan to do what it can to save his life. In a video on Tuesday, IS threatened to kill the pilot and a Japanese jounalist Kenji Goto Jogo unless Jordan release an
Iraqi female jihadist. Jordan has offered to release her. But the uncle of the pilot has said he had received word from IS that they rejected the offer.
The financial markets in Greece have fallen sharply after the new left-wing prime minister Alexi Tsipras signals his government will stand by its anti-austerity pledges. The main stockmarket closed about 9% down while Greek banks lost more than a quarter of their value. Mr. Tsipras has said he will review the entire prioritization programme which is the condition of the international bailout. Andrew Walker reports.
Behind these falls lies the new Greek government's desire to end austerity policies and have its debts to the eurozone reduced. If he can not get an agreement with Europe, it's conceivable that Greece might end up leaving the Eurozone. The fact that it's possible means the country's banks could face customers pulling their money out and there are reports that some have done so already. That risk has hit the bank share prices very hard. One Piraeus bank fell nearly 30% and has in total lost almost half of its values since Sunday's election.
The South African city of Cape5 Town has approved plans to rename a major road after the last white president FW de Klerk. Opponents have accused Mr. de Klerk of having blood on his hands during apartheid. Grant Ferrett reports.

But local ANC represent chief was furious. The mayor Patricia de Lille accused him of behaving like fags. She said they spattered police who were called in to prevent disruption of proceedings7. Council had eventually retreated to another room and voted to approve the rename of the road with ANC members locked outside.

以色列总理内塔尼亚胡表示，以色列军用车队遭遇致命袭击的幕后主使将为他们的行为付出代价。以色列表示，两名士兵在真主党发动的袭击中遇难，7人受伤。
无论今天袭击的幕后主使是谁，都将付出惨重代价。一段时间以来，伊朗通过真主党试图从戈兰高地建立另外的恐怖主义战线来打击我们。黎巴嫩政府和阿萨德政权应该为从他们的领土内对以色列发动的袭击造成的后果承担责任。以色列向黎巴嫩南部发射炮弹作为回应。联合国安理会正在召集会议讨论该暴力事件。

希腊新的左翼总理阿列克谢·蒂西普拉斯(Alexi Tsipras)宣布其政府将遵守反紧缩政策的承诺之后，希腊金融市场迅速下跌。主要的股票市场收盘价下跌了大约9%，而希腊银行价值下跌了超过四分之一。蒂西普拉斯表示，他将重审优先项目，这是国际援助的条件。Andrew Walker报道。
导致股票大幅下跌的原因是希腊新政府渴望终止紧缩政策，减少欧元区的债务。如果他不能与欧洲达成协议，希腊最终可能离开欧元区。事实是，这可能意味着希腊银行将面临储户挤兑，有报道称有的银行已经面临这种情况。这种风险严重冲击了银行的股价。自周日的选举以来，比雷埃夫斯一家银行股价下跌了接近30%，市值已经下跌了接近一半。
