Israel carries out night raids on east Lebanon: police
Baalbek, Lebanon, Aug 7, 2006 Israeli warplanes early Monday carried out a dozen raids in east Lebanon, hitting roads linking the region with Syria, Lebanese police said without reporting any victims. Two raids targeted the road leading to the Masnaa border post, knocked out by previous attacks and hit again each time residents fill in the craters so as to be able to drive around, the police said. The fighter-bombers pounded the road between Baalbek and Rayak, linking the Baalbek region with Zahle in the centre of Lebanon, they said. A construction company with a parking place for trucks was targeted. Two other raids hit the Aita al-Fukhar road linking villages in the Bekaa Valley with Syria. The fighter-bombers carried out four raids on hills east of Baalbek, some 10 kilometres (six miles) from the border with Syria, the police said. Israeli warplanes have bombarded the same sector several times since the launch of the offensive against Shiite Muslim group Hezbollah in Lebanon on July 12.
