Lebanon blames Israel for Hezbollah blast....

Right, of course, who else but Israel could be responsible....

The Lebanese Foreign Ministry has sent a letter to the United Nations accusing Israel for the explosion in a weapons cache in a southern Lebanon village earlier this month, a Lebanese newspaper reported on Monday.

The London-based Arabic newspaper Al-Hayat also said that contrary to previous reports, the blast apparently claimed the lives of several people and injured several others.

Lebanon now claims that the explosion took place at an uncompleted structure in the village that stored "arms left behind by the Israelis" during the 34-day war between Israel and Hezbollah in southern Lebanon in 2006.

The United Nations, which has peacekeepers based in the south, said there were signs the stockpile belonged to Hezbollah, and added that the presence of these arms was a violation of UN Security Council resolution 1701 which ended the war.
