BEIRUT, LEBANON, July 16, 2006: After hiding in a bomb shelter for three days with her family in Beirut's Shiite neighborhood of Dahiya, 3-year-old Kawther's family fled to a government school in the Christian neighborhood of Achrafieh. Kawther cries at the shelter, wanting to return home to take a bath. Israel has warned all people dwelling in Southern Lebanon that it will step up its already fierce air assault on targets across the country, including civilian buildings and infrastructure thought to harbor Hezbollah fighters and supplies.
