Ancient Egyptian Statue Mysteriously Rotates at Museum
Jun 24, 2013 10:13am
An ancient Egyptian statue in a British museum has sparked debate after it was captured on video seemingly rotating on its own.The 10-inch tall statue of Neb-senu has been on display at the
Manchester Museum in Manchester, England, for 80 years but it was only
recently that museum staff noticed the statue moving.
“Most Egyptologists are not superstitious people. I wondered who had changed the object’s position without telling me,”
the museum’s curator, Campbell Price, told the U.K.’s Sun. “But the next time I looked, it was facing in another direction–and a day later had yet another orientation.”With his curiosity piqued, Price returned the statue of the Egyptian
idol to its original position in a locked glass case and set up a camera
to film the statue over an 11-hour period. The resulting time-lapse
video, Price says, shows the statue moving on its own.Other experts attribute the rotation to a more scientific reasoning, such as subtle vibrations that cause the statue to move.“The statue only seems to spin during the day when people are in the
museum,” Carol Redmount, associate professor of Egyptian archeology at
the University of California, Berkeley, told ABC News. “It could have
something to do with its individual placement and the individual
character of the statue.”The statue, made from serpentine, shows what is likely an official
with “priestly duties,” according to Price, wearing a shoulder-length
wig and knee-length kilt.The hieroglyphs on the back of the statue spell out, “bread, beer and
beef,” a “prayer for offerings for the spirit of the man,” Price told
the Sun.

Rocket attack on Netivot (archive)
Flash 90
Terrorists from Hamas-controlled Gaza fired at least seven rockets into southern Israel on Sunday night.
Around 1:00 a.m., four rockets were fired towards
the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council. One of them may have been intercepted
by the Iron Dome anti-missile system, and the other three exploded in
open areas. There were no physical injuries or damages.Earlier, terrorists fired three rockets towards the
Bnei Shimon Regional Council. The rockets exploded in open areas,
causing no physical injuries or damages.Residents reported hearing a siren shortly before
midnight. The siren was heard in the Bedouin city of Rahat, in Netivot
and in other towns in the area.IDF Spokesman Yoav Mordechai wrote on his Facebook
page Sunday night, "Again, an emergency meeting at about midnight. After
40 days of quiet, without fire from Gaza into Israeli territory,
rockets which probably fell in open areas were fired tonight. A good and
peaceful night for residents of the south.”Last Wednesday morning, terrorists from Hamas-controlled Gaza
fired three rockets at southern Israel.At least one rocket exploded in an open region of
the Hof Ashkelon Regional Council, causing no physical injuries or
damages. Two other rockets reportedly
exploded in Gaza.The rocket attacks come after a period of relative quiet in the
region. The Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) said recently that May
2013
saw a decline in the number of terror attacks carried out against Israelis by Palestinian Authority Arab terrorists.The report noted that in May there only three attacks which
originated in Gaza, as opposed to 12 in April. Two of the three attacks
were rocket attacks and the third one was a small arms shooting.

notice following the rocket attacks on southern Israel overnight, the
army said Monday.The
Israeli Air Force (IAF) attacked targets in Gaza early Monday, following the rocket fire from Gaza, sources from both sides of the conflict said."In response to the numerous rockets launched at Israel in the past
several the hours, IAF aircraft targeted terrorist infrastructure
including two weapon
storage facilities
in the central Gaza Strip and a rocket launch site in the southern Gaza
Strip. IAF pilots reported accurate strikes on the targets," the army
said in a statement.According to
AFP, Arab witnesses said the air raids, which caused no injuries, hit uninhabited sites belonging to the Islamic Jihad movement.Late Sunday two Arab rockets landed in southern Israel, without causing any damage or injury, according to
Israeli military sources.Two other rockets were intercepted by Israel's "Iron Dome" defense system, the army said.It said Hamas was accountable for the rocket attacks.
Israel appoints new central bank chief
Associated Press – JUNE 24,13
JERUSALEM (AP) —
Israel has appointed respected banker
Jacob Frenkel as the next
governor of the Bank of Israel.It will be Frenkel's second term in the position. The current governor,
Stanley Fischer, will be leaving the position at the end of this month after eight years in office.The appointment must be approved by Israel's Cabinet, but significant opposition is unlikely.Frenkel won praise for his role as
central bank
chief from 1991 to 2000 for his part in reducing inflation,
liberalizing financial markets and integrating Israel's economy into the
global financial system.He has since worked in international finance. Frenkel, 70, is currently chairman of JPMorgan Chase International.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the decision Sunday in a statement sent to news media.
Ministers crawl toward bank resolution deal
Today @ 09:58 JUNE 24,13
By Benjamin Fox
BRUSSELS - EU finance ministers will
reconvene on Wednesday (26 June) in a last-ditch attempt to agree on
common rules to wind down ailing banks.Ministers failed to reach a deal despite almost 20 hours of talks in Luxembourg that ran from Friday into Saturday morning.A common position is required before ministers can open negotiations
with the European Parliament, which agreed its own stance on the new
regime in May.
The bank resolution and recovery directive, tabled by the European
Commission in June 2012, was widely seen as a precursor to the single
resolution mechanism (SRM) for the eurozone, a controversial piece of
legislation expected to be proposed in the coming weeks by the EU
executive.The directive sets out a hierarchy of shareholders and creditors who
would be "bailed in" to bear losses if a bank got into serious
difficulties, leaving savers as the last in line to lose money.By forcing shareholders and major creditors to pay for a bank
collapse, ministers hope to avoid a repeat of the multi-billion euro
taxpayer funded bailouts following the 2008-9 financial crisis.Although there had been earlier disagreement over the prospect of
rules requiring all member states to set up bank-funded resolution funds
earlier in negotiations, the main stumbling block was over how much
flexibility governments should be granted in making decisions on winding
down banks.The UK and Sweden are among a group anxious to be allowed to invoke a
"financial stability" clause to take account of spill-over effects that
resolving a single bank could have on the rest of the sector.However, Germany and the Netherlands are among those believing that
too much flexibility would create new imbalances between the bloc’s
weaker and stronger economies.The previous evening, on Thursday (20 June), ministers agreed
guidelines on how the eurozone's emergency bailout fund can inject money
directly into struggling banks.Starting in mid-2014 when the eurozone's new bank supervision regime
begins, €60 billion out of the European Stability Mechanism's €500
billion lending capacity will be allocated to bank recapitalization.“I think we can reach a deal if we take a few more days,” said Michel Barnier, the EU's commissioner on financial regulation.“We are not far off now from a political agreement,” he added.
For his part, French finance minister Pierre Moscovici claimed that "90 percent" of the work has been completed.However, Irish counterpart Michael Noonan cautioned that there are still “real issues” to be resolved.“There is no guarantee there will be a solution on Wednesday,” he noted.

9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

Uttarakhand floods: 5,000 feared killed; Kedarnath cleared; 19,000 still stranded
Sunday, Jun 23, 2013, 21:31 IST | Place: Dehradun | Agency: PTI
In
stepped up rescue operations by the Army, ITBP and NDRF amid
intermittent rains, more than 3,000 people were rescued from different
areas,.

Kedarnath Valley, the temple town which was the epicentre of the
Uttarakhand rain fury, was on Sunday cleared of all stranded pilgrims,
as rescuers battled rains to evacuate 3,000 more people in the disaster
in which the death toll is likely to cross 5,000.With MeT department warning of adverse weather in the region from
tomorrow, the multi-agency operations raced against time to try to
rescue remaining 19,000 stranded people stuck in three areas including
Badrinath. Air operations had to be also briefly suspended due to bad
weather.As stepped up rescue operations amid intermittent rains led to
evacuation of more than 3,000 pilgrims and tourists out of the stranded
22,000 people, the state government said at least 5,000 people must have
perished in Uttarakhand in the worst ever deluge to have struck the
hill state."At least 5,000 people must have been killed in the deluge that
inflicted heavy damage on vast tracts of land especially in Kedarnath
valley," Disaster Management Minister Yashpal Arya told reporters at the
Jollygrant airport on his return from an aerial survey of the affected
areas. The official death toll as of yesterday was put at 680 while
Chief Minister Vijay Bahuguna said the death toll is likely to be around
1,000.However, Arya did not give a specific figure saying extrication of
bodies from under tonnes of debris in affected areas which is yet to be
taken up may take some time.ITBP jawans also began constructing foot tracks to speed up evacuation
work, offering a "silver lining" for the stranded people."New tracks for able-bodied men to move on foot are opening up and that
is a silver lining," Air Commodore Rajesh Isser, who is also the Task
Force Commander for the IAF, said.He said air operations are now focussed on areas like Gaurikund and Harshil and other places which were untouched.In stepped up rescue operations by the Army, ITBP and NDRF amid
intermittent rains, more than 3,000 people were rescued from different
areas, Chief Secretary Subhash Kumar told reporters.Kedarnath valley has been totally evacuated while over 3,000 stuck in
Badrinath, Junglechatti and Harshil areas were evacuated to safe
locations by the security forces on Sunday, he said. Scores of dead
bodieslay strewn in Kedarnath area.A joint combing operation by the security forces will be launched in
Kedarnath valley tomorrow morning to ensure not a single survivor
remains stuck in Rudraparayag district.When asked how many more are yet to be evacuated from Badrinath and
nearby areas, the Chief secretary said the figure should not be more
than 7,000.
Alberta flooding: Medicine Hat water levels peak
MEDICINE HAT,
ALTA.—Floodwatchers in the eastern Alberta city of Medicine Hat believe
water levels on the South Saskatchewan River have peaked and stabilized.The water has managed to top sandbag barriers in some areas of the city and there has been flooding in some neighbourhoods.But some of the city’s defences remain dry and there is a feeling that the flooding won’t be as severe as initially feared.Roughly 10,000 people
were removed from their homes over the weekend as the city prepared for
the surge of water that swamped Calgary and surrounding areas last week.People are still being urged to stay away from the evacuation zone.The river overflowed
Sunday in low-lying areas and people piled up thousands of sandbags as
fast as they could, but some barriers were quickly breached.At least 10,000 people in Medicine Hat’s flood zone were instructed over the weekend to head for higher ground.Two of the three bridges that connect the city’s north and south were also closed amid fears the river would overrun them.The good news is the
torrent of water wasn’t expected to be quite as high as initially
feared, however, the bad news is that it will stay high for several
days.“We’ve got a longer sustained event, but that event is of a lower pressure or a lower speed,” said deputy fire chief Doug Cooke.“While that’s going to
be longer and that puts different kinds of pressure on our system,
we’re hoping that we can stay ahead of it and keep the water out.”
Ron Robinson, director
of emergency measures in Medicine Hat, got an aerial view of the
flooding Sunday. Many areas were inundated with water, he said.“You’d almost think we’re in the muddy waters of the Mississippi right now that surrounds a lot of these homes,” said Robinson.“It’s actually quite tragic in some areas.”Some sections of the city of 62,000 have been closed and are being patrolled by police to guard against possible looting.Robinson had earlier said that people could be forcibly removed if necessary.
“They can be fined. They can be jailed. We need to protect lives even if they don’t want us to.”Environment Canada was calling for showers and possible thunderstorms in Medicine Hat on Monday.There was better news
in Calgary over the weekend. Mayor Naheed Nenshi announced that 65,000
residents who had been ordered to leave their homes were being allowed
to return to assess the damage.He warned there was
still a long way to go before the city and its downtown would be back to
normal, although crews were working hard to clean up and restore
utilities. Nenshi suggested anyone with offices downtown was unlikely to
be able to return before mid-week.People in High River,
the community hardest hit by the flooding, didn’t have much reason for
optimism. Mayor Emile Blokland said there was still no timeline for when
the 13-thousand evacuees there would be able to return.He said he understood
their frustration, but explained that the town’s infrastructure had
suffered a “critical blow” and every house needed to be inspected.
Power outages in Calgary could last for months after floods
By Nia Williams | Reuters – JUNE 24,13
By Nia Williams
CALGARY, Alberta (Reuters) - Power outages in the Canadian oil capital of
Calgary
could last for weeks or even months, city authorities said on Sunday,
as record breaking flood waters moved downstream to threaten smaller
communities in southeastern Alberta.Even as officials told 65,000 Calgary residents they could start
returning to their water-damaged homes, 10,000 people in were evacuated
in
Medicine Hat, where the South Saskatchewan River is expected to burst its banks.CF Industries said it was temporarily halting production at its Medicine Hat facility,
Canada's largest nitrogen fertilizer complex, as a precautionary measure in view of the flooding.The floods have closed key transit arteries, including some rail
lines and the east-west TransCanada Highway, and displaced more than
100,000 people.The floods already look significantly worse than those of 2005, which caused C$400 million ($383 million) in damage.Three people have been confirmed dead.But officials say it is too early to put a figure on the damage in
the Western Canadian province and in Calgary, its largest city, with a
population of 1.1 million."It will certainly be at least the middle of the week before people
will be going back to work. There are some pockets of downtown where
normality will not return for weeks,"
Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi told a news conference."We have turned a corner. We are still in a state of emergency, but
our hearts and thoughts and prayers are now with our colleagues
downstream."Bruce Burrell, director of the
Calgary Emergency Management Agency,
said it could take days, weeks or perhaps even months to restore all
power in the downtown core, where many of Canada's oil companies have
their headquarters.Many of the companies were making plans for employees to work from home.Heavy rains were blamed for 750 barrels of synthetic oil spilling
from a pipeline approximately 70 kilometers (40 miles) south of the oil
town of Fort McMurray, in northern Alberta, early on Saturday.Enbridge Inc, Canada's largest pipeline company, said the cause of
the spill was still under investigation but unusually heavy rain may
have resulted in ground movements that impacted the pipeline.
The oilfields were not threatened by the floods.Enbridge also has shut down two other major oil pipelines serving
Canada's oil sands region as a precaution. Canada is the biggest
supplier of energy to the United States.There was little, if any, trade in Canadian crude oil on Friday,
after the evacuations started in Calgary. Net Energy Inc, one of the two
main
Calgary crude brokers, said it would be open for business this week with brokers working remotely.
INSURANCE GAPS
Jeff Burke, president and CEO of insurers Western Financial Group,
said many Canadian homeowners would not be covered for damages resulting
from groundwater flooding."There is no flood insurance in Canada, so people do not have
coverage for this. Where there's some coverage in some cases is if they
have sewer back-up cover," Burke said."Just looking at water levels, what we have experienced and the destruction is much more severe now than in 2005."The company is headquartered in High River, one of the communities
worst affected by the flooding, and the site of the three deaths
recorded so far.The floods followed 36 hours of unusually heavy rain that pushed the
volume of water in rivers to record levels. Some communities received
six months of their normal rainfall in fewer than two days.Evacuations started on Thursday and utility Enmax switched off power to central Calgary on Friday afternoon to avoid
water damage to its downtown facilities.Troops have been helping evacuate residents and throw up sand or earth barriers to protect low-lying communities.Soldiers on Sunday helped shore up the east bank of the Bow River in
Calgary and ensure the stability of an substation belonging to utility
Enmax.City authorities said 24,000 Enmax customers were still without power.(Reporting by Nia Williams; Editing by Janet Guttsman and Marguerita Choy)

Merkel party: No to eurobonds and No to Turkey
Today @ 09:29 JUNE 24,13
By Valentina Pop
Berlin - Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Union on Sunday (23 June) adopted its
political programme ahead of the September elections, vowing to oppose any debt mutualisation in Europe.The main message of the 128-page long manifesto is that Germans
should vote for the Christian Democrats and their Bavarian sister party
(CSU) as they got Germany and Europe out of the crisis."Before the last elections in 2009, there were big concerns about the
future. Germany and Europe were in the middle of the worst economic
crisis since the Second World War. Today Germany is again a strong and
successful country, one of the strongest worldwide. This shows: our
efforts have paid off. Europe and the euro are advancing," the manifesto
reads.Merkel's party promises to hold a steady course on economic policies,
meaning no euro-bailouts without strict conditions, pushing through
reforms and cutting back public deficit and debt.
Eurobonds - an idea promoted by the opposition about a year ago but meanwhile abandoned - remain a no-go area."This would lead to a European debt union, where the German taxpayer
would need to take over almost all the debt of other countries. We
reject that," the party programme reads.The Christian Democrats want the German "dual education model" to be
adopted all over Europe in order to boost youth employment, but they
insist countries should not spend more or take on more debt to restart
their economies."For many in Europe and around the world, Germany is a role model
today when it comes to good policies for a sustainable development," the
party paper says.Being a Christian party that sought to get Europe's "Christian roots"
into the EU treaty, Merkel's party mentions its commitment to
"Christian-Western roots and the ideas of enlightenment."
No to Turkey
The Christian Democrats have also not changed their mind on Turkey's EU membership."We reject full membership because Turkey does not meet the
conditions for joining the EU. Also, given the size of the country and
its economic structure, the European Union would be overwhelmed," the
text says.Instead, the manifesto promotes the idea of strengthening ties
between the EU and Turkey, even though Merkel on Sunday admitted that
Berlin's idea of a "privileged partnership" has been dismissed by
Ankara."You know, if you think you had a good idea but the other side keeps
rejecting it, then you reach a point where you don't bring it up again.
We have now realised that Turkey doesn't want it," she said.Both countries on Saturday summoned each other's ambassadors after
Germany opposed the opening of an EU negotiation chapter with Turkey,
due to the strong-handed reaction of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan
to quell anti-government protests.
EU seeks to look beyond Turkey protests
By RAF CASERT | Associated Press – 37 mins ago JUNE 24,13
LUXEMBOURG (AP) — Turkey's hope of moving to the next stage of its negotiations to join the European Union was kept alive Monday after Germany
and others sounded a conciliatory note over the prospect despite the
protests that have rocked the government of Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Though Germany, which has a sizeable Turkish population, blocked the next step in membership talks last week, the country's
Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said discussions should continue."We should not let the dialogue be interrupted or weakened," he said ahead of a meeting of EU
foreign ministers. "It is also important that we also are aware of the strategic and long-term developments."During the meeting of the 27 EU foreign ministers, Germany was
looking for a compromise on certain technical issues that will keep the
talks on track. The original plans had been to approve the new step in
the negotiations at a meeting on Wednesday.Ministers from countries including Sweden and Belgium agreed that
longer term considerations beyond the current political strife should be
taken during the talks."We are not pursuing policies for
the day and for the week, we are pursuing policies for the years and
the decades," said Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt. "We can't change
the strategy of the
European Union, just because there happens to be nervousness in one part or in the other."EU Foreign Affairs chief Catherine Ashton was also seeking to keep the door open."My general view on everything is engagement is a much better option where you possibly can," she said.Berlin's blocking of the decision to open a new chapter in the
long-running accession negotiations last week was a blow to Erdogan's
government, which already faces increasing international scrutiny over
its crackdown."We have to notice at the moment that there has to be some movement
from Turkey before starting with negotiations in a new chapter," said
Austria's Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger.Any decision on opening a new policy area in negotiations with Turkey needs the unanimous backing of all
EU countries. Ireland, which currently holds the rotating presidency of the EU, was seeking to get all member states to follow one line."We are waiting for signals from Ankara that they are going to give people in Turkey really their rights," said Spindelegger.Turkey began EU accession negotiations in 2005, but has made little
progress because of its dispute with Cyprus, an EU member, and
opposition among some in Europe to admitting a populous Muslim nation
into the bloc.The session of EU talks to open next week was to focus on regional
policies, one of 35 chapters for aspiring members to address. But some
officials expressed concern that such talks could appear to endorse the
crackdown on the demonstrations.Despite the concerns, Belgium too insisted on pressing ahead. "We
should never close the door," said Foreign Minister Didier Reynders.Asked what Turkey will do if the EU does not open a new chapter in
the membership talks this week, Turkey's minister in charge of EU
affairs Egemen Bagis said the country was also busy working on the
issue.He was quoted as telling Germany's Sueddeutsche Zeitung daily: "We
are working on an answer. I can't tell you more, only so much: Turkey
has other options.""We need the EU and the EU needs us," he said. "It is not fair to
block the opening of the new chapter in negotiations, which is mainly
technical, because of technical constraints."___Associated Press writer Geir Moulson contributed from Berlin___Follow Raf Casert on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/rcasert
Egyptian government faces blame in mob sectarian killing
By Alexander Dziadosz | Reuters – 11 mins ago JUNE 24,13

ZAWIYAT ABU MUSALLEM,
Egypt (Reuters) - Egypt's
government
promised "exemplary punishment" on Monday after the mob killing of four
Shi'ite Muslims near Cairo raised fears of wider sectarian bloodshed at
a time of grave national crisis.But Shi'ite minority leaders and the liberal opposition accused the government itself, dominated by the
Sunni Islamist Muslim Brotherhood, of whipping up sectarian anger over the war in
Syria as a means of appeasing its own hardline Salafist allies.
President Mohamed Mursi,
under pressure from the army to end broader factional violence,
condemned "this heinous crime" and promised "swift justice". Al-Azhar,
Cairo's leading Sunni religious establishment, said the killings were
contrary to the teachings of Islam and urged "harshest punishment".In Sunday's violence in the suburb of Zawiyat Abu Musallem, in sight
of the Giza pyramids, a crowd ransacked and torched the house of a
family, whose members told Reuters the attack began when a Shi'ite
dignitary visited them for a religious festival.They yelled "Infidels!", said
one woman who survived and who complained that police failed to
intervene during the frenzied violence in the house and rubbish-strewn
alley outside. "The Salafis and
the Brotherhood - they're the ones who attacked us," added the woman, clearly in shock, sitting in her wrecked home.A video posted online by rights activists showed dozens of men and
youths looking on as several others drag the bloodied body of at least
one man along a street, one pulling on what may be a rope around his
neck. In other sequences from the events on Sunday, a squad of riot
police is present and a group of black-robed women on a crowded, narrow
street chant "No God but God!"Tensions are running high across Egypt between the government and
opponents who plan major rallies this weekend to demand Mursi resign.
There has been scattered political violence and the army, which
effectively ran Egypt for decades before the 2011 revolution, warned it
would step in to quell any unrest.
PRIME MINISTER
A government statement issued for Prime Minister Hisham Kandil said
he "strongly condemned the terrible incident" and a accused the
attackers of importing "sectarian strife" of a kind alien to Egyptian
society. He would "ensure justice is done and that the culprits are made
examples of by deterrent punishment".
But Mohamed Ghoneim, a leading
figure in a Shi'ite community of a few hundred thousand, was quoted by
state newspaper website al-Ahram saying the
Muslim Brotherhood was trying to appease hardline Salafist allies by not shielding Shi'ites from attack.Liberal opponents of the Muslim Brotherhood also accused the movement and
President Mursi
of stirring up sectarian passions by joining this month in Sunni calls
for jihad against Syria's president and his Shi'ite allies from Lebanon
and Iran.The opposition Dustour Party said in a statement that it saw "this
heinous crime as a direct result ... of the disgusting religious hate
speech that goes on escalating with the knowledge of the regime and the
blessings of the president".But Essam el-Erian, deputy leader of the Brotherhood's Freedom and
Justice Party, insisted the movement condemned the killings - comparing
them to the deaths of its own Islamist allies and supporters in
factional clashes in recent days."It is forbidden to Muslims to spill Egyptian blood," he wrote on
Facebook. "All Egyptian blood - Muslim or Christian, man or woman, Sunni
or Shi'ite, civilian or police. Whoever takes part in shedding blood,
even in words ... or by hate speech, is taking part in a terrible
crime."He said Egypt would not slip into civil war and that the army stood ready to step in and defend the nation.Mursi and the Brotherhood angered their Salafist allies by trying to
improve ties with Shi'ite Iran since Mursi was elected a year ago. But
as the Syrian civil war has inflamed sectarian passions across the
Middle East, Mursi and the Brotherhood joined a Sunni conference in
Cairo this month that condemned President Bashar al-Assad and his
Shi'ite allies.Mohamed Zarea of the Cairo Institute for Human Rights Studies, said
of the mob violence: "This did not just come from incitement by
individuals but also the government. After the Syria conference, there
was direct incitement against Shi'ites."(Reporting by Maggie Fick, Shaimaa Fayed, Shadia Nasralla and

Lebanon clashes rage near mosque; 16 soldiers dead
By SARAH EL DEEB | Associated Press – 1 hr 23 mins ago JUNE 24,13
BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanese army units battled followers of a
hard-line Sunni cleric holed up in a mosque complex in a southern port
city on Monday, the second day of fighting that has left at least 16
soldiers dead, the military said.The clashes in Sidon, Lebanon's
third-largest city some 40 kilometers (25 miles) south of Beirut, are
the latest bout of violence in Lebanon linked to the conflict in
neighboring Syria.They are the bloodiest yet involving the army — at least two of those
killed are officers. The Lebanese media has depicted the clashes as a
test for the state in containing armed groups that have taken up the
cause of the warring sides in Syria, whose sectarian makeup mirrors that of its smaller neighbor.The two days of fighting between troops and armed supporters of Sheikh Ahmad al-Assir have transformed the city, which had been largely spared the violence plaguing border areas near Syria, into a combat zone.The National News Agency said the clashes also left fifty wounded.
Hospital officials said at least three of al-Assir's supporters died in
the fighting.The military in a statement said the gunmen were using the religious
compound to fire on its troops and had taken civilians as shields.Machine-gun fire and rocket-propelled grenade explosions caused panic among residents of Sidon. Residents reported power and water outage.The city streets appeared largely deserted Monday. Local media
reported many residents were asking for evacuation from the heavily
populated neighborhood around the Bilal bin Rabbah Mosque where al-Assir
preaches, and where the fighting has been concentrated. The local
municipality said that the city is "a war zone," appealing for a
cease-fire to evacuate the civilians and wounded in the area.Many people living on upper floors came down or fled to safer areas,
while others were seen running away from fighting areas carrying
children. Others remained locked up in their homes or shops, fearing
getting caught in the crossfire. Gray smoke billowed over parts of the
city.The military appealed to the gunmen to hand themselves in. In its
statement, it said that it "reassures all Lebanese that it will continue
to uproot the strife and will not stop its operations until security is
totally restored to the city and its boroughs, and falls under the rule
of law and order."The clashes erupted Sunday in the predominantly Sunni city after
troops arrested a follower of al-Assir. The army says supporters of the
cleric opened fire without provocation on an army checkpoint.Al-Assir is a virulent critic of the powerful Shiite militant
Hezbollah group, which along with its allies dominates Lebanon's
government. He supports rebels fighting to oust Syria's President Bashar Assad.A few Hezbollah supporters in the city were briefly drawn into the
fight Sunday, firing on al-Assir's supporters. At least one was killed,
according to his relatives in the city who spoke anonymously out of
concerns for their security.But the group appeared to be staying largely out of the ongoing
clashes. Last week, al-Assir supporters fought with pro-Hezbollah
gunmen, leaving two killed.Early Monday, al-Assir appealed to his supporters through his Twitter
account in other parts of Lebanon to rise to his help, threatening to
widen the scale of clashes.The tweets did not give a clear statement on how the battle began. It
came after a series of incidents pitting the cleric's followers against
other groups in the town, including Hezbollah supporters and the army.The cleric is believed to have hundreds of armed supporters in Sidon
involved in the fighting. Dozens of al-Assir's gunmen also partially
shut down the main highway linking south Lebanon with Beirut. On Monday, they opened fire in other parts of the city, with local media reporting gunshots in the city's market.Fighting also broke out in parts of Ein el-Hilweh, a teeming
Palestinian refugee camp near Sidon, where al-Assir has supporters.
Islamist factions inside the camp lobbed mortars at military checkpoints
around the camp. Tension also spread to the north in Tripoli, Lebanon's
second largest city. Masked gunmen roamed the city center, firing in
the air and forcing shops and businesses to shut down in solidarity with
al-Assir. Dozens of gunmen also set fire to tires, blocking roads. The
city's main streets were emptying out. There was no unusual military or
security deployment.Sectarian clashes in Lebanon tied to the Syrian conflict have
intensified in recent weeks, especially after Hezbollah sent fighters to
support Assad's forces. Most of the rebels fighting to topple Assad are
from Syria's Sunni majority, while the President Bashar Assad belongs to the Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam.Walid al-Moallem, Syria's foreign minister, blamed the violence in
Lebanon on the international decision to arm rebels, saying that it will
only serve to prolong the fighting in Syria and will impact neighboring
Lebanon."What is going in Sidon is very dangerous, very dangerous," he told
reporters in Damascus. "We warned since the start that the impact of
what happens in Syria on neighboring countries will be grave."
In Syria, activists reported fighting Monday between Syrian troops
and rebels in the northern province of Aleppo as well as districts on
the edge of the Syrian capital and its suburbs.Clashes in Lebanon have also mostly pitted Sunni against Shiite. The
most frequent outbreaks have involved rival neighborhoods in the
northern port city of Tripoli, close to the Syrian border.President Michel Suleiman called for an emergency security meeting later Monday.Headlines of Lebanon's newspapers were all dominated by the violence
in Sidon, with many seeing it as a test for the state to impose order.
"An attempt to assassinate Sidon and the military," read the headline of
the daily al-Safir. "Al-Assir crosses the red line," read another
headline in al-Jomhouria daily. A third headline in al-Nahar read:
"Yesterday war in Sidon. Today, decisiveness or settlement?"
