Israeli warplanes carry out raid near Beirut
BEIRUT (AFP) Jun 07, 2004
Israeli warplanes carried out an air raid late Monday against Palestinian positions some 20 kilometres (123 miles) south of the Lebanese capital, a Palestinian official told AFP.

In Israel, security sources said the planes raided a "terrorist target" just outside Beirut.

The planes fired two missiles at former positions of the radical Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC) on the Mediterranean coast at Naameh, a PFLP-GC official said.

"We don't know exactly what was targeted," he said.
