World’s most powerful nations unite

By Tarryn Le Chat

The World’s most powerful nations united in calling yesterday for an immediate end to Israeli Military action in Lebanon and Gaza and to abductions and shelling by “extremist elements” as the toll of bloodshed rose on both sides of the conflict. The G8 also urged the UN to consider deploying an “international security or monitoring presence” in Lebanon. Hezbollah rockets left eight people dead in the Israeli city of Haifa yesterday and bombs shook Beruit as Israel pursued a five-day-old assault in Lebanon aimed at crippling the Shia muslim group.
