      Gruesome scenes after Israeli air raids on south Lebanon

      TYRE — A baby was sliced into three and body parts hung from olive
trees as the full force of Israeli military might hit rural southern Lebanon
Thursday.
      In the deadliest Israeli strikes in a decade, at least 47 people were
killed.
      As the south came under a relentless air assault that destroyed vital
bridges linking one area to another, ordinary life came to a standstill as
terror-stricken residents hid indoors and businesses remained closed.
      The silence that reigned over southern Lebanon was broken only by the
sounds of violence and its aftermath — bomb blasts and the wail of ambulance
sirens.
      Israel's offensive, prompted by the capture of two of its soldiers by
the group Hizbollah in a bid to secure a swap of prisoners, was the most
serious since it ended 22 years of occupation in southern Lebanon in 2000.
      On a charred mattress rest the remains of a burned baby girl, her arm
to one side. Her upper body is at one end of the bed and her lower body at
the other.
      Police said the 10-month-old and six other family members were killed
when an Israeli missile hit their home in the usually quiet village of
Baflay, near the coastal city of Tyre.
      The baby, whose name has not yet been released, was taken to a
hospital morgue in Tyre. Her body has not yet been claimed by relatives.
      As dawn broke over the sleepy village of Dweir, near the main central
market town of Nabatiyeh, tragedy hit the household of Adel Akkash, a Shiite
Muslim cleric.
      An Israeli missile destroyed his home, and neighbours who rushed to
help met with a gruesome scene. Akkash, his wife and their seven young
children were all dead.
      Relief workers were called in to recover the remains of Akkash's seven
children from the family olive grove, an AFP correspondent said. Small
severed body parts were recovered from the branches of olive trees, and
placed in plastic bags.
      Eleven members of another family — including five children — met a
similar fate in Zibqine, a small village southeast of Tyre.
      A missile destroyed the home of a former mayor of the village who died
a few years ago, burying his entire family under the rubble.
      Hours after the attack, the dusty bodies of his wife, children and
nephews were retrieved from the debris by relief workers who took them to a
hospital morgue.
      Three other relatives were found wounded, and taken to hospital.
      "We were all hiding in the shelter when the house was destroyed by the
Israeli jets," one of them told AFP.
      "What did we do to deserve this barbaric attack on civilians? There
are no resistance [fighters] here," he said.
      Police said Israeli air strikes also killed two civilians in
Baraashit, five in Shour and three in Srifa, three villages near Tyre.
      Six civilians were wounded and taken to hospital after air strikes
destroyed three houses in the village of Maarub, east of Tyre, police said.
      "The Israelis are suffocating us. They destroyed our roads and
bridges. We cannot even flee," said southern resident Ahmad Kamel.
      "They are killing civilians because they cannot kill Hizbollah
fighters. They want to bring us back to the occupation era. We cannot take
this injustice any more. Will the world continue to watch them kill children
without doing anything?" asked Jamil Hassan.
