Beirut, March 31 (RHC)-- In Lebanon, an Israeli airstrike blew up a residential building in Beirut’s southern suburbs on Friday.  It was the first Israeli attack on Beirut since a truce was reached in November.  Residents of the neighborhood decried the Israeli strikes.

Rouaida Hobeika: “This destruction, we got used to it. There’s nothing new. This is their approach. Their approach is vandalism, destruction. Their approach is killing. They don’t need a reason to hit us.  They invented a reason to hit us now.  This is normal, and all the world knows it.  The old and young know it.”

Israel also attacked the town of Kfar Tibnit in southern Lebanon, killing at least three people and wounding 18, including women and children.
