Lebanon Crisis Update



Strike on bunker failed, says Hizbullah
Israeli jets bombed Beirut last night in an apparently vain effort to decapitate the Hizbullah leadership, after at least 63 Lebanese civilians died under air strikes and artillery fire on the deadliest day since the Israeli assault began.

Aircraft dropped 23 tonnes of explosive on a bunker in which the Israeli military believed Hizbullah figures were meeting. Hizbullah said the strike hit a mosque, and that no one had been killed.

So how exactly is this going to improve the situation? The Lebanon is currently being in the words of the Lebanese PM Fouad Siniora 'torn to shreds'. I'd like to know how bombing the infrastructure of the Lebanon is going to help the Lebanese government deal with Hezbollah, I really do.
