BEIRUT, Sept. 11 (Xinhua) -- Lebanon will file a complaint to the UN against Israel for violating the country's airspace and causing damage by breaking the sound barrier in the south of the country, Lebanese Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil said on Monday.
Israeli jets flew low over the southern city of Saida, causing sonic booms that broke windows and shook buildings, Lebanese security sources and residents said.
Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri said Lebanon would issue its complaint "against Israel for planting spy devices on Lebanese land and continously breaching" its airspace, according to his office.
Israeli warplanes regularly enter Lebanon's airspace, the Lebanese army said.
Tensions have risen recently between Lebanon's Hezbollah and Israel, which fought a month-long war in 2006, having killed around 1,200 people in Lebanon, mostly civilians, and 160 Israelis, most of them troops.
