Massacre background : 11 dead - 10 injured

18 April 1996, Eleven persons were killed and ten injured in an IDF air attack on a
house in Nabatiyya al-Faqwah, some three kilometers north of Nabatiyya, in South
Lebanon. Eight of those killed were from one family: a mother and her seven children,
including a four-day-old baby. Around 6:30 a.m., IDF helicopters fired rockets at three
buildings in the village, demolishing one totally and severely damaging the other two.
Lebanese families were living in the buildings. The IDF Spokesperson claimed that the
helicopters fired at the building in which the eleven were killed because Hizbullah was
hiding there after firing the mortars. Investigations conducted by Amnesty and HRW did
not confirm this contention The IDF's statement ignored the fact that the IDF fired at two
other buildings during the same attack.
