IAF jets bomb Al-Manar television _____ Yaakov Katz, THE JERUSALEM POST Jul. 13, 2006 _____ IAF jets attacked the Al-Manar television station in Beirut belonging to the Hizbullah organization on Thursday morning. There were no immediate reports of casualties. The station was apparently continuing to broadcast from the station. The attack was part of a military campaign which the IDF vowed would be harsh and quick against the Lebanese government and Hizbullah, which killed eight IDF soldiers and kidnapped two others along the northern border on Wednesday. Earlier Thursday morning, IAF fighter jets bombed runways at Beirut International Airport. Al-Jazeera television network reported that 15 people were killed in the airstrike. The IDF said that the airport was targeted because it was used by Hizbullah to import weapons. The IAF attack forced the closure of the airport and the diversion of two flights to Cyprus. Meeting in emergency session late Wednesday, the Cabinet approved IDF plans to target the airport and other strategic infrastructures inside Lebanon including power plants. In southern Lebanon, at least 27 civilians were reported killed overnight Wednesday in IAF attacks, including a family of 12 in the village of Dweir, leading TV station LBC reported. The IAF struck a Hizbullah post and two bridges in southern Lebanon as the number of targets hit by the air force since fighting erupted after the kidnapping of two IDF soldiers <http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1150885976658&pagename=JPost%2FJ PArticle%2FShowFull> , reached into the hundreds. Earlier, in a series of air strikes, IAF aircraft bombed Kfar Shuba and Sheba Farms. The communications infrastructure connecting Beirut to the south of the country was also damaged by IAF strikes. The strikes followed an attack by IAF warplanes and navy gunboats on a Palestinian terrorist base south of Beirut late Wednesday in the closest raid to the Lebanese capital since fighting erupted. The names of six of the eight soldiers killed Wednesday in a Hizbullah attack on IDF forces patrolling the Lebanese border were released for publication Wednesday evening: Sgt. Nimrod Cohen <http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1150885983071&pagename=JPost%2FJ PArticle%2FShowFull> , 19, from Mitzpe Shalem; Sgt.-Major Eyal Benin <http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1150885983078&pagename=JPost%2FJ PArticle%2FShowFull> , 22, of Be'ersheba and Sgt.-Major Shani Turgeman <http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1150885983124&pagename=JPost%2FJ PArticle%2FShowFull> , 24, of Beit Shean. All the soldiers' families have been notified. The fourth victim was later identified as Sergeant-Major Wasim Nazel, 27, from the Druze village of Kfar Yanuh. Earlier, Nazel's family was mistakenly informed that he had been kidnapped. Two of the soldiers who were killed when the tank in which they were riding drove over an explosive device, were identified as St.-Sgt. Alexei Kashiniervski, 21, from Ness Ziona and Yaniv Bar-On, 19, from Maccabim. Under heavy fire, IDF forces continued their attempts to reclaim the bodies of the four soldiers who died when their tank was ripped apart by the blast. OC Northern Command Maj.-Gen. Udi Adam said Wednesday the IDF was preparing for a widespread operation not only against Hizbullah but also against the Lebanese government. "The IDF is responding with its full might by the air, the sea and the ground," Adam said. "We are also preparing for a massive operation to defend Israeli citizens and stop the terror."
