GUEST,Teribus BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine (2685* d) RE: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine 29 Aug 13


Lebanon -2006:
IDF hit 832 sites in Southern Lebanon with "Cluster Munitions" the majority of which were delivered in the form of artillery shells and rockets. One quarter of the sub-munitions dropped were duds

Resulting casualties - 28 killed and 186 wounded
As of December 2012, the LMAC data indicated 663 casualties (154 killed; 509 injured) from unexploded submunitions, of which 18% (120) were children.

The IDF identified the sites targeted and gave details of the munitions used, no civilian areas were targeted, they also handed over maps detailing where landmines had been laid. No such information was supplied by Hezbollah.

No mention from Steve Shaw of the "Cluster Munitions" fired by Hezbollah during the same conflict from Southern Lebanon into Israel. Hezbollah fired Chinese-manufactured cluster munitions into Israel civilian targets, using 122-mm rocket launchers, hitting Kiryat Motzkin, Nahariya, Karmiel, Maghar, and Safsufa. The 113 rockets fired killed 44 civilians and injured thousands.
