6. calling up 15,000 more reservists, no ceasefire 'til Sat

Israel Radio reported plans to call up more reserve soldiers to support the expanded ground operations. The radio said additional three divisions -- which could mean at least a further 15,000 reservists -- would be called up.

The expectation is UN wil demand a cease fire Fri, with it taking effect Sat or letting them continue a couple more days.

"The sources added that the UN Security Council would call for a cease-fire in Lebanon on Friday, and it could take effect as early as Saturday."
