[Ynet News] Aviad Glickman - 30 American victims of Hizbullah's Katyusha rocket attacks on northern Israel during the Second Lebanon War have filed a civil action in the U.S. District Court in Washington against the North Korean government for aiding Hizbullah. The suit requests more than $100 million in compensatory damages and also names Hizbullah as a defendant. According to the suit, North Korea provided military training for senior Hizbullah figures, built a network of bunkers in which Katyusha rocket launchers were stored, and supplied Hizbullah with weapons and explosives. 43 Israeli civilians were killed and more than 4,000 others were injured during the war.
