Mikati urges 'pressure on Israel' for ceasefire
Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati called for "pressure on Israel" for a ceasefire as a new Israeli strike hit the capital's southern suburbs on Sunday.
Mikati said he backed U.S. and French efforts for a truce, as the official National News Agency reported a strike south of Beirut.
An AFP journalist heard a huge blast and saw columns of smoke billowing above the site of the hit.

Where have you and all Governments of the Republic of Lebanon been since May 1983 when an agreement was drawn up between Lebanon and Israel. Unfortunately that agreement was torn up by the then Syrian occupiers. However, since the Syrians were expelled no-one has contacted the Israelis to re-instate that agreement.Why? So don't go blaming them for everything.
