Understanding committee studies Lebanese complaints

The April Understanding Monitoring Committee met in the Lebanese border town of al-Naqoura. Lebanon has lodged a new complaint to the committee against Israel for launching attacks that resulted in wounding two civilians in the town of Suhmour in the western Bekaa.

The number of complaints raised by Lebanon against Israel which are currently being debated by the committee reached some 13.

Meanwhile, officers in the Israeli army in the occupied part of south Lebanon called for Israel's immediate withdrawal from south Lebanon, due to the heavy losses inflicted by the Lebanese resistance on these forces.

Israel Radio said that those Israeli army leaders announced in a meeting held recently with the Israeli army's chief of staff, Gen. Shaoul Mufaz, that there is no reason to continue the Israeli presence in south Lebanon.
