Lebanese DM: 300 Islamist militants killed or wounded
Wednesday, 27 June, 2007 @ 4:29 PM
Beirut – The funerals of 16 militants killed in Nahr el-Bared were delayed because the Governments in the Middle East region want to inspect the bodies before burial to determine their nationalities.
Many of the terrorists killed in Lebanon are neither Palestinian nor Lebanese, but a mix of Islamists from as far as Bangladesh in the East to Morocco in the west.
Some 300 Islamic militants have been killed or wounded in the month-long battle with Lebanese troops in a Palestinian refugee camp, leaving only a few dozen fighters still hiding in the besieged camp, Defense Minister Elias Murr (pictured right) said Tuesday.
In an interview with the Dubai-based Al-Arabiya television, Murr said the Lebanese army has cornered the remaining members of the al-Qaeda-inspired Fatah Islam group in a small section of the Nahr el-Bared camp, located near the northern port city of Tripoli.
The military now controls 80 percent of the camp, the minister said.
The army has captured about 40 militants of different nationalities, including those suspected of links to al-Qaeda, Murr said. He said the group's leader, Shaker al-Absi, who has not been seen since fighting broke out May 20, was now taking residents as “human shields,” though he gave no other details.
The fighting in Nahr el-Bared has been Lebanon's worst internal violence since the 1975-1990 civil war, and is believed to have claimed the lives of at least 60 militants and more than 20 civilians.
It came amid a fierce power struggle between Lebanon's Western-backed government and the opposition led by the militant Hezbollah group.
Last week, Murr declared victory over Fatah al-Islam, but heavy machine gun fire and bursts of artillery shells continue to reverberate across the camp, including on Tuesday, sending plumes of black and white smoke into the air.
The state-run National News Agency said the army unleashed artillery barrages to silence the militants' gunfire. At least two shells fired by Fatah Islam gunmen landed in villages near the camp, causing damage to a house but no casualties, it said.
“The army has accomplished its military mission with regard to destroying and occupying all Fatah Islam positions in the Nahr el-Bared camp,” Murr maintained Tuesday.
When fighting broke out, there were more than 350 Fatah Islam fighters in the camp. Murr said the “remaining number now is between 50 to 60.”
He said 84 soldiers have been killed and more than 150 soldiers have been wounded.
In recent days, the army said it destroyed several buildings that housed Fatah Islam's positions on the camp's fringes in what has become known as the “new camp.”
But parts of the “old camp” – the densely populated neighborhoods with narrow, winding streets where most of the Palestinian refugees lived – appear to remain outside the military's control.
Murr said the army was tightening the noose around the remaining militants hiding in the “old camp” to force them to surrender.
He said the siege would continue until the militants surrender or are eliminated. “The army will not back down on its mission before these criminals are apprehended. This is a final and irreversible decision.”
Earlier Tuesday, Murr met with FBI Director Robert Mueller, who reaffirmed U.S. support for Lebanon. A U.S. Embassy statement said Mueller's meetings in Beirut focused on law enforcement cooperation and “highlighted the willingness of the FBI to ... help Lebanon strengthen its ability to fight crime and terrorism by providing training and equipment.”

Egypt detains 50 Muslim Brotherhood students: source
Sat Jun 30, 2007 12:23PM EDT
CAIRO (Reuters) - Egyptian police detained 50 students from the Muslim Brotherhood, the country's most powerful opposition group, in a renewed crackdown on the movement Saturday, a Brotherhood source said.
A security source gave the figure as 45 detained.
The detainees are students from several universities throughout Egypt and had been holidaying in the coastal city of Alexandria when police raided their lodgings, the Brotherhood source said.
The security source said they had been detained for holding meetings and possessing Brotherhood literature.
Brotherhood deputy leader Mohamed Habib said the crackdown on the group's youth wing was part of the government's continuing efforts to contain and marginalise the movement.
"The students are among the active elements of the Brotherhood, particularly in the universities," Habib told Reuters.
An interior ministry spokesman said he knew nothing about the detentions.
The government says the Brotherhood is an illegal organisation and it frequently detains its members, often releasing them without charge after days or weeks in detention.
But the organisation runs an office in Cairo and fields candidates in elections as independents.
The Brotherhood, which rejects violence, won 88 seats in the 454-seat parliament in 2005, but failed to win any seat to the upper house of parliament in June elections that were marred by reports of widespread irregularities.

Six killed by rebels in Thai Muslim south Fri Jun 22, 2:22 PM ET
NARATHIWAT, Thailand (AFP) - Six people were killed and 20 injured in a string of attacks in Thailand's Muslim-majority south, including a man who was shot and then partially beheaded, police said Friday.
The attacks came as Thailand's junta leader, General Sonthi Boonyaratglin, wrapped up a two-day visit to the troubled region along the southern border with Malaysia.
Four teenagers were killed late Friday, including three Muslim boys who were at a teashop following evening prayers in Yala province, police said.
The boys, aged 13 and 14, were killed when militants opened fire on the teashop, injuring 10 other people.
A 16-year-old Buddhist girl was also killed Friday in Yala when militants shot her, police added.
Ten people, including five soldiers, were hurt in two separate bombings Friday, while a 54-year-old Buddhist was gunned down in a drive-by shooting late Thursday, police said.
In the most gruesome slaying, militants shot a 29-year-old Muslim man and then partially severed his head, police said.
The man, a 29-year-old local government official, was returning from evening prayers late Thursday when he was ambushed in Narathiwat province, police said.
The string of attacks came as the junta chief toured the region, where more than 2,300 people have been killed in three years of separatist unrest.
Sonthi, who is the first Muslim army head in this mainly Buddhist nation, met Thursday and Friday with local religious leaders and military commanders.
Sonthi seized power from prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra in a bloodless coup last September. The government he installed has made a series of peace initiatives that so far have failed to quell the unrest.
Defense Minister Boonrawd Somtas told reporters in Malaysia on Thursday that the insurgents were on their "last legs" and trying to escalate the conflict in a last-ditch bid for international attention.
Thai authorities have yet to clearly identify who is behind the violence. No one has claimed responsibility for any of the attacks or made any specific demands of the government.
The region was once an autonomous Malay sultanate until Thailand annexed it more than a century ago. Separatist violence has simmered ever since.

Bomb hidden in tree explodes at teashop in southern Thailand, wounding 13

BANGKOK, Thailand – A bomb exploded at a busy teashop in southern Thailand on Monday, wounding 13 people, police said.
The bomb, hidden under a tree by the teashop near a government school in Yala province's Bannang Sata district, seriously wounded four people, said police Lt. Yothin Wanthawee, who blamed suspected Muslim insurgents for the attack.
AdvertisementIn Narathiwat province, two soldiers who were protecting teachers as they went to school in Tak Bai district were wounded by a bomb, police Lt. Jed Jaraenyaen said.
Since a Muslim separatist rebellion flared in Thailand's three southernmost provinces of Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat in early 2004, near-daily bombings, drive-by shootings and other attacks have killed more than 2,300 people.
Military-installed Prime Minister Surayud Chulanont acknowledged Monday that the situation in the south has deteriorated, citing a political crisis in Bangkok as one of the reasons for the intensifying violence in the region.
Daily anti-government protests in the capital, growing gradually in size and enthusiasm, have increased the risk of confrontation between the protesters and the military leaders who ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra in September for alleged corruption and abuse of power.
“It is a good opportunity for (the insurgents) during a political crisis to spread the violence and instability, especially to gain attention abroad,” Surayud told a news conference.
Surayud also suggested for the first time that schools in remote and volatile areas where insurgents have been particularly active should be shut following recent attacks on teachers. Students and teachers will be transferred to other schools that government security officials can monitor more closely, Surayud said.
The decision came after more than 50 schools were temporarily closed when two Buddhist teachers were killed June 11 in a daytime raid on a school in Sisakorn district of Narathiwat province. More than 200 students were there at the time. Another Buddhist teacher was killed in a drive-by shooting the same day.
More than 70 Buddhist teachers working in government schools have been killed in the three southern provinces since January 2004, when the long-simmering separatist movement flared.
The region is the only one with a Muslim majority in Buddhist-dominated Thailand. Southern Muslims have long complained of being treated as second-class citizens.
The government says it is seeking talks with the rebels to try to end the insurgency, reversing Thaksin's hard-line military style. But the rebels have responded by intensifying their violence.
