the western Bekaa), subject it to heavy bombardment, which resulted in three dead and a number of wounded, destroyed a two storey building and another building next to it, and inflicted heavy damage on over 20 houses.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div style=\"color:#000000;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;font-family:Times New Roman, serif;\">\n<p style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\">The
