Israel, Hizbollah intensify reprisals; Nasrallah warns on soldiers
By: Karim Tellawi
BEIRUT, Lebanon: Israel fired missiles at
Beirut airport and Hizbollah's television station on Thursday
leaving 22 civilians dead in raids on south Lebanon and
intensifying its reprisals after Hizbollah captured two
Israeli soldiers and killed eight on Wednesday.

Hizbollah retaliated for Israeli "massacres" by firing 60
rockets at Nahariya in northern Israel. The Israeli army said
Katyusha rockets had hit the city. A civilian was killed.
The strike came two hours after aircraft bombed two runways at
Beirut international airport as part of an Israeli assault in
Lebanon in retaliation.
Lebanese security sources said Israeli aircraft fired at least
six rockets at runways of Rafik al-Hariri International
Airport and a nearby road, forcing flights to divert.
Hizbollah Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah said the two
soldiers had been seized to force Israel to release prisoners.
Israel insisted it would discuss no such swap to win the
return of the soldiers held in Lebanon or Gaza.
The White House condemned the Hizbollah attack and blamed
Syria and Iran, which both back the group.
