33°04′50″N 35°25′20″E / 33.08056°N 35.42222°E / 33.08056; 35.42222 Maroun al-Ras is a village located in Southern Lebanon. It was the scene of a major confrontation between the Israeli Army and Hezbollah fighters during the 2006 Israeli-Lebanese conflict. The village was occupied by Israel after they said it was a stronghold for Hezbollah and one of the launching points for rocket attacks on northern Israel.
Currently 6 Israeli soldiers have been killed there, though Israel says it drove Hezbollah out.
