JERUSALEM, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Israeli soldiers shot and wounded a foreign farm worker on Israeli soil on Saturday while firing at suspected infiltrators near the border fence with Lebanon, Israeli military sources and media reports said. A military spokeswoman said troops had responded to an alert about suspicious figures spotted near the border and opened fire on them when they refused orders to halt, wounding one man who turned out to be a worker at a collective farm in Israel. Israeli media said the victim was from Thailand and was wounded in the shoulder. Israel fought a month-long war with Hezbollah guerrillas in south Lebanon in 2006, and its troops watch the border closely. (Writing by Allyn Fisher-Ilan; editing by Tim Pearce)
