00:00:14,023 --> 00:00:15,685

-  Here in

the South, Lutfoola says,

 

2

00:00:15,685 --> 00:00:17,142

the daily Israeli bombardment has

 

3

00:00:17,142 --> 00:00:20,125

targeted larger towns

like this one, Khiam.

 

4

00:00:20,125 --> 00:00:21,839

Which is in fact, where those four U. N.

 

5

00:00:21,839 --> 00:00:24,093

observers were last night killed.

 

6

00:00:24,093 --> 00:00:26,426

Hit by an Israeli airstrike.

 

7

00:00:43,558 --> 00:00:45,389

In the surrounding area

the damage has been heavy

 

8

00:00:45,389 --> 00:00:49,139

with bridges damaged

and buildings destroyed.

 

9

00:01:01,427 --> 00:01:03,461

For a week or so now

Lutfoola has been moving

 

10

00:01:03,461 --> 00:01:05,495

between towns and villages.

 

11

00:01:05,495 --> 00:01:07,543

Some of them very small and only a few K's

 

12

00:01:07,543 --> 00:01:09,543

from the Israeli border.

 

13

00:01:10,703 --> 00:01:11,971

One of them, the village of Debbine

 

14

00:01:11,971 --> 00:01:13,175

was hit last week as the civilian

 

15

00:01:13,175 --> 00:01:15,342

casualties began to mount.

 

16

00:01:29,367 --> 00:01:30,864

Despite what she's being told

 

17

00:01:30,864 --> 00:01:32,631

this young Lebanese girl's relatives

 

18

00:01:32,631 --> 00:01:34,131

are far from okay.

 

19

00:01:34,986 --> 00:01:36,314

An artillery shell hit her home

 

20

00:01:36,314 --> 00:01:37,494

and her father, her sister,

 

21

00:01:37,494 --> 00:01:40,528

an 18 month old baby brother

 

22

00:01:40,528 --> 00:01:43,861

actually in pieces in this pickup truck.

 

23

00:01:52,432 --> 00:01:54,341

Not far away in the town of Aturun.

 

24

00:01:54,341 --> 00:01:55,747

The Israeli airstrike took out

 

25

00:01:55,747 --> 00:01:59,216

a Lebanese security force vehicle.

 

26

00:01:59,216 --> 00:02:01,291

These soldiers are not civilians,

 

27

00:02:01,291 --> 00:02:04,291

but nor are they Hezbollah fighters.

 

28

00:02:12,870 --> 00:02:15,203

(screaming)

 

29

00:02:17,725 --> 00:02:18,803

In fact they're under orders from

 

30

00:02:18,803 --> 00:02:19,891

their government in Beirut to stay out

 

31

00:02:19,891 --> 00:02:21,708

of the worsening dogfight

 

32

00:02:21,708 --> 00:02:24,625

between Hezbollah and the Israelis.

 

33

00:02:28,505 --> 00:02:29,783

The Israelis of course claim their

 

34

00:02:29,783 --> 00:02:31,267

attacks have been pinpoint.

 

35

00:02:31,267 --> 00:02:33,548

Aimed at Hezbollah targets,

 

36

00:02:33,548 --> 00:02:35,443

but these civilian

refugees have been forced

 

37

00:02:35,443 --> 00:02:38,003

to take shelter at the school in Lutfula's

 

38

00:02:38,003 --> 00:02:39,503

hometown of Claya.

 

39

00:02:40,601 --> 00:02:41,625

These people apparently fled from

 

40

00:02:41,625 --> 00:02:44,042

the village of Wasani nearby.

 

41

00:02:47,142 --> 00:02:51,309

Hoola, our man says, has

been particularly hard hit.

 

42

00:02:52,787 --> 00:02:54,939

This distraught local's cousin and uncle

 

43

00:02:54,939 --> 00:02:56,845

are lying dead in the house.

 

44

00:02:56,845 --> 00:02:59,826

After it was hit by an Israeli shell.

 

45

00:02:59,826 --> 00:03:02,514

Somehow or other, 15 other family members

 

46

00:03:02,514 --> 00:03:04,097

survived the blast.

 

47

00:03:19,091 --> 00:03:22,924

(yelling in foreign language)

 

48

00:03:54,577 --> 00:03:56,606

Lutfula got a word with Hassan Aub

 

49

00:03:56,606 --> 00:03:58,189

the mayor of Hoola.

 

50

00:04:30,380 --> 00:04:32,030

As they talked, these residents

 

51

00:04:32,030 --> 00:04:34,447

were fleeing the air attacks.

 

52

00:05:19,297 --> 00:05:21,389

In our last contact with Lutfoola

 

53

00:05:21,389 --> 00:05:23,022

he told us neither the shelling,

 

54

00:05:23,022 --> 00:05:25,439

nor the danger was subsiding.
