Lebanon To Protest To Un Over Israeli "aggression"

BEIRUT, July 20 (AFP) - Lebanon said Tuesday it will lodge a complaint with the United Nations over Israeli attacks on the south of the country including the killing of a Hezbollah militiaman.
Foreign Minister Jean Obeid has given instructions to Lebanon's UN envoy to hold consultations "on the possibility of calling a special Security Council meeting to condemn the Israeli aggressions," his ministry said.
Israel carried out a series of raids in south Lebanon after an exchange of cross-border fire between its troops and Hezbollah militiamen which followed the killing Monday of a military commander from the Shiite Muslim militia in a car bombing blamed on Israel.
A Hezbollah fighter was killed when an Israeli combat helicopter fired a rocket on the south Lebanese village of Aita Shaab near the border with Israel.
