UN Humanitarian Chief Accuses Hizballah of Causing the Deaths of Hundreds in Lebanon
[AP/Fox News] UN humanitarian chief Jan Egeland accused Hizballah on Monday of causing the deaths of hundreds of Lebanese civilians during the past two weeks of cross-border violence with Israel. "Hizballah must stop this cowardly blending... among women and children," he said. "I heard they were proud because they lost very few fighters and that it was the civilians bearing the brunt of this. I don't think anyone should be proud of having many more children and women dead than armed men." Israel's death toll stands at 36, with 17 people killed by Hizballah rockets and 19 soldiers killed in the fighting.
