Israel mounts new air raids on Lebanon
Israel is Going Down | 19.08.2006 13:37 | Lebanon War 2006 | Anti-militarism
Obviously having no intention of observing its own ceasefire, in an act of unparralled cynicism, Israeli warplanes and helicopters launched fresh raids in eastern Lebanon today.
Lebanese and Hezbollah security forces said that the strike took place just after dawn around the village of Bodai, west of Baalbek in the Bekaa Valley.
Hezbollah television later reported its guerrillas clashed with Israeli commandos near Bodai and forced them to retreat under the cover of air strikes.
It is the first time Israeli warplanes have attacked Lebanon since a cease-fire, put into effect on August 14, halted 34-days of Zionist bloodshed.
So far the war has claimed 1,183 Lebanese – most of them civilians.
