Lawyers lodge complaint against Israel for crimes against humanity
2006-07-20
Israeli warplanes on Tuesday hit residential areas, bridges, churches and roads, leaving behind nothing but wreckage, prompting Lebanon's lawyers to file a complaint against Israel for crimes against humanity to the UN.Following a meeting of the Beirut Bar Association on Tuesday, the association's president, Butros Doumit, said he was discussing with government officials the "possibility to file a complaint with the UN against Israeli political and military leaders, who are committing war crimes, crimes against humanity and genocide on Lebanese territory."The Israeli forces hit two trucks during a pre-dawn bombing raid on the coastal town of Jbeil, about 30 kilometers north of Beirut, Lebanese police said. There were no reports of casualties.A truck carrying medical supplies donated by the United Arab Emirates was hit and its driver wounded on the Beirut-Damascus highway, the Health Ministry said.Meanwhile, truck drivers in Akkar were asked not to cover their containers in order to prevent being targeted by the Israeli forces, which might think the trucks contain weaponry.On Tuesday afternoon, four bridges linking Lebanese towns to Syria were targeted by Israeli missiles.A bridge in Rashaya al-Wadi was also destroyed.
