Israel Bombs Lebanon

NABATIYEH, Lebanon -- Israeli warplanes bombed suspected guerrilla targets in hills in south Lebanon on Wednesday, security sources said. They said two planes fired four rockets in two runs at posts of the pro-Iranian Hizbollah in Mlita and Jabal Safi areas just north of the Jewish state's occupation zone in south Lebanon. No other details were immediately available. Hours before the air raid, guerrillas fired Katyusha rockets and mortar bombs into the zone and Israeli and allied militia gunners fired back artillery. No casualties were reported in the duels. Last Thursday, Israeli planes bombed a Hizbollah training camp in eastern Lebanon's Bekaa Valley, killing 26 militants.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
