Strike hits Hezbollah stronghold
 ISRAELI forces carried out new bombing raids on Beirut's southern suburbs today, launching six bombs on districts in the Hizbollah stronghold area. At least six explosions were heard and a massive cloud of white smoke billowed over the area,, AFP correspondents on the scene said. Three buildings were flattened on Hadi Nasrallah avenue, the main street of the suburbs which have suffered massive devastation since Israel launched a military onslaught after Hezbollah's July 12 capture of two Israeli soldiers. One of the destroyed buildings collapsed, blocking the way on the street named after Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah's son, Hadi, who died in a military operation against Israeli forces in southern Lebanon in 1997.
