Anxious families line the pavement as dozens remain missing in the rubble days after Israel's strike on Beirut. The rare Israeli airstrike on the Lebanese capital, Beirut, has taken the fight against Hezbollah to a new level. But in launching a strike in the heart of a busy, densely-populated residential area, dozens of civilians have also been killed, among them women and children. Lebanon's defence minister Maurice Sleem told us from the scene of the blast site in Beirut's Dahieh suburb: 'Children and women have been killed in this attack and this is not acceptable. It is a war crime by any standards...no matter how you measure it, it is a war crime.'
