One person, not 40, dead in Israel strike -Lebanon

BEIRUT, Aug 7 (Reuters) Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora said today that one person had been killed in an Israeli air strike on the southern border village of Houla, rather than 40 as earlier feared.

A resident said about 50 people had been found alive under the rubble.

''The massacre in Houla, it turned out that there was one person killed,'' Siniora told reporters. ''They thought that the whole building smashed on the heads of about 40 people ... thank God they have been saved.'' REUTERS MQA KP2240
