August 4th, 2010

The brother of Sgt. Robert Ashi , who was killed on Tuesday during a clash between Lebanese army and Israeli army, hold on to the coffin carried by Lebanese soldiers, during his funeral procession, at Darb el-Sim village, near in the southern port city of Sidon, Lebanon, on Wednesday, Aug. 4, 2010. Lebanese and Israeli troops exchanged fire Tuesday in a fierce border battle that killed a senior Israeli officer, two Lebanese soldiers and a journalist. The violence started when Lebanese opened fire after Israel tried to cut down a tree along the border, something the military has done in the past to improve its sight lines into Lebanon. (AP Photo/Hussein Malla)AP - It took no more than cutting down a tree to shatter four years of calm on the Israel-Lebanon border.
