Posted 8/22/2006 8:59 PM ET LONDON (AP) — Amnesty International on Wednesday
accused Israel of war crimes, saying it broke international law by deliberately
destroying Lebanon's civilian infrastructure during its recent war with
Hezbollah guerrillas.

The human rights group said initial evidence, including the pattern and scope
of the Israeli attacks, number of civilian casualties, widespread damage and
statements by Israeli officials "indicate that such destruction was deliberate
and part of a military strategy, rather than 'collateral damage.'"
Amnesty International, whose delegates monitored the fighting in both Israel
and Lebanon,

and barring indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks.

"The scale of the destruction was just extraordinary," said Amnesty researcher
Donatella Rovera, who visited Lebanon during the war and co-authored the report.
"There is clear evidence of disproportionate and indiscriminate attacks."
The group urged the United Nations to look into whether both combatants,
Israel and Hezbollah, broke international law.
Amnesty International said it would address Hezbollah's attacks on Israel
separately.

Israel suffered international condemnation when it attacked targets in
southern Lebanon hours after Hezbollah guerrillas operating there killed three
Israeli soldiers and captured two in a cross-border raid July 12.
The Israeli Defense Force has said that between that raid and the Aug. 14
U.N.-brokered cease-fire, it launched more than 7,000 air attacks on Lebanese
targets and the navy conducted about 2,500 bombardments.
