| DEBKAfileÂ’s military sources: The series of huge explosions that struck South Beirut Tuesday evening were caused by 20 Israeli airborne missiles dropped on large, newly-discovered subterranean arms caches. The power of the secondary blasts which blew up their contents attested to the accuracy of the Israeli intelligence pinpoint of Hizballah weapons bunkers in S. Beirut. |

| #4 Think the Lebs understand the more weapons Israel destroys, the harder it is for Hiz to terrorize at least in the short term? Is there a window of opportunity? |

| #3 Breaking: That was the 4th holiest "arms cache" in Lebanon. The "Arab Street" will be seetheing, followed by pockets of "stop and go" anger. |

| #2 Hezb storing heavy weapons in S Beirut is a surprize to me. I thought they would have almost everything in the Bekka valley or in S Leb and keep only enough in Beirut to intimidate the locals. |
