Lebanese army units entered the border town of Aitaroun in southern Lebanon for the first time since the withdrawal of Israeli forces. It remains unclear whether the withdrawal included all of Aitaroun and its surrounding areas. Residents of the town did not accompany the army as they entered, following instances a week ago in other towns when returnees were killed or injured by Israeli forces. Many towns that the Israeli army has withdrawn from are devastated by deliberate Israeli demolitions of homes and facilities. Retired Maj. Gen. Hisham Jaber fears that Israel might not completely withdraw from Lebanon by the new deadline of Feb. 18.
