Lebanon to Seek War Reparations from Israel
[Reuters] Sujata Rao - Lebanon is preparing to go to an international tribunal to seek reparations from Israel for damage caused during last year's war, the country's finance minister Jihad Azour said on Monday. He said Lebanon's Justice Ministry had commissioned international lawyers to prepare the case. Israel, supported by the U.S., says it acted in self-defense during the war.
