SEVERAL people were killed today after Israeli aircraft staged raids throughout Lebanon, targeting northern roads leading to Syria and destroying the electricity plant in south Lebanon's major city Sidon, police said.
The raids were the first since the UN Security Council adopted late Friday a resolution calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah militants.
Several civilians were killed and injured when Israeli aircraft bombarded a village east of the port city of Tyre in south Lebanon, police said.
A first raid destroyed a house in the village of Rashaf, 20km east of Tyre and a second one caught residents who gathered around the destroyed building.
