Israel-Lebanon (3): Beirut airport has been struck again

Beirut, Lebanon - It has been the fourth attack since the beginning of Israeli offensive

Beirut International Airport has been bombed today again, for the fourth time in not much more than 24 hours. Until now they aimed at neuralgic points, such as fuel deposits, taking off and landing runways. Instead the last raid has directly struck the terminal of the "Rafik al-Hariri" air station, according to journalistic sources who were present. See AVIONEWS too.
