First bombing . After invading Lebanon in June , the Israeli military set up command posts to run the cities they occupied . On November 11 , 1982 , a Peugeot car packed with explosives struck the seven - story building being used by the Israeli military to govern Tyre . The explosion leveled the building and killed 75 Israeli soldiers , border policemen , and Shin Bet agents . In addition , anywhere from 14 – 27 Lebanese and Palestinian prisoners that were being held by Israel were killed . Twenty - seven Israelis and 28 Arabs were injured . The Israeli government said soon after the blast , and insists to this day , that the explosion was an accident resulting from gas cylinder s exploding .

Naming of military air bases Most countries with military aviation forces have a system for naming of military airbases . " Air Force Base " ( " AFB " ) is part of the name of military airbase s of the United States Air Force ( USAF ) and the South African Air Force ( SAAF ) , with the USAF using it at the end of the name of the base ( e . g . " Dover AFB " ) , and the SAAF using it at the start ( e . g . " AFB Hoedspruit " ) . The Royal Australian Air Force uses a slightly different format referring to bases as " RAAF Base " ( Royal Australian Air Force Base ) . The Canadian Forces also uses a different format referring to any base as " CFB " ( Canadian Forces Base ) or " BFC " in French ( " Base des Forces Canadiennes " ) . Naming of British airbases . The Royal Air Force ( RAF ) call their bases " Royal Air Force station " , followed by the station name . This is often abbreviated into " RAF " plus the name , e . g . RAF Marham . They are generally named after the closest railway station as rail travel was the main means of transport for service personnel in the early days of the RAF . Many RAF stations have long since lost their local railway station . Other bases were named after the local village , or used the name of the building in which they resided , such as RAF Bentley Priory , or country ( e . g . RAF Belize ) . There is no difference in nomenclature for non - flying RAF stations , and overseas RAF stations have followed the same principles . The aviation division of the Royal Navy , the Fleet Air Arm ( FAA ) generally follow the same principles of naming as the RAF , but are instead prefixed with Royal Naval Air Station ( RNAS ) , such as RNAS Yeovilton . However , in maintaining the maritime link , all Royal Navy air stations are additionally named in the same manner as the Navy ' s ships - in Yeoviltons ' instance , it is also called HMS Heron . The British Army Air Corps have previously used the term " Airfield " , preceded by the local name , for example Wattisham Airfield . However , as the majority of current Army airfields are former RAF stations , they now precede the locality name with " Army Air Corps " ( AAC ) , for example AAC Middle Wallop . Naming of United States airbases . Most United States Air Force bases are named after a person of military or governmental significance . Examples include Edwards Air Force Base , Selfridge Air National Guard Base and General Mitchell Air Reserve Base . " Air Force Station " is used in the name of those with very little or no flight activity ( e . g . Onizuka Air Force Station ) . USAF bases located in other countries are usually named after the city or region where they ' re located ( e . g . Spangdahlem Air Base ) . The United States Army , like the Air Force , names most of its air bases after a military figure ( e . g . Biggs Army Airfield ) . The United States Navy , United States Marine Corps , and United States Coast Guard generally name their airbases after the area where they ' re located ( e . g . Pensacola Naval Air Station , Cherry Point Marine Corps Air Station and Coast Guard Air Station Elizabeth City ) .
