Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah – a few days before being killed in an Israeli raid last Friday in Beirut – had accepted a 21-day truce with Israel. The Lebanese Foreign Minister, Abdallah Bou Habib, told CNN. “He agreed,” the minister told Christiane Amanpour.
“Lebanon had accepted a ceasefire, but in consultation with Hezbollah. The head of Parliament, Nabih Berri, had consulted with Hezbollah and we had informed the Americans and the French,” the minister said.
Raid on Beirut: 6 dead and 7 injured
Meanwhile, Israeli raids on Beirut are continuing. The latest toll from the aerial bombing that hit a building in the center of Beirut in the early hours of today is at least six dead and seven injured. The Lebanese media reported it. Israel has confirmed a targeted raid in the Lebanese capital. A building was hit in the Bachoura area, not far from Parliament. The building housed a health facility affiliated with Hezbollah, the BBC reports, specifying that there were air raids during the night also against targets in the Dahiyeh area, in the southern outskirts of Beirut.
Author of Ramallah lynching killed in Gaza
And the war also continues in the Gaza Strip. Aziz Salha, one of the perpetrators of the lynching of two Israeli reservists in Ramallah in 2000, was killed in an air raid in the center of the Strip. This was reported by the Jerusalem Post which relaunched news from military radio on the basis of information released by Palestinian media.
Salha, whose image with blood-stained hands went around the world, was released from prison in 2011 and returned to Gaza as part of the agreement for the release of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, the Times of Israel recalls.
