Lebanon’s health minister has said what is happening in his country is “carnage”, as hospitals struggle to cope with the number of casualties from two days of widespread Israeli air strikes targeting the armed group Hezbollah.

Dr Firass Abiad told the BBC it was “clear” that many of the 550 people killed in Monday’s attacks were civilians, including children and women.

    I’m voting party for Socialism and Liberation in November and you can too.

    They’re running on a platform of Palestinian statehood and an end to arms shipments to Israel.

    No word on their position with regard to Israel’s war with Lebanon, but I’m confident it’s one that I’ll support.

        Hey, in case you’re not familiar with it, the Party for Socialism and Liberation is a communist party, not some right wing formation like the tea party or whatever.

        So nothing about my support for that party would make me a supporter of trump.
