Lebanon

Heavy fighting between the Lebanese Army and al Qaeda linked Fatah al-Islam continued late Tuesday evening. “Units are now defusing booby-traps and cleansing the buildings and positions that the gunmen abandoned,” according to the Army. Fatah al-Islam denied reports that 7 members surrendered to Fatah.
